Resources currently sorted by:Title (A-Z) Aladin  | | Description: | Aladin is an interactive software sky atlas allowing the user to visualize digitized images of any part of the sky, to superimpose entries from astronomical catalogs or personal user data files, and to interactively access related data and information from the SIMBAD, NED, VizieR, or other archives for all known objects in the field.
Aladin is particularly useful for multi-spectral cross-identifications of astronomical sources, observation preparation and quality control of new data sets (by comparison with standard catalogues covering the same region of sky).
The Aladin interactive atlas is available in three modes: a simple previewer, a Java applet interface and a Java Standalone interface. | | | Version: | 2.009 | | Filesize: | 384.77 Kb | | Added on: | 09-Feb-2004 | | Downloads: | 590 | | Rating: | 7.7 (3 Votes) | | Category: | Java | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | Comments (1) | |

| ImageJ | | Description: |
Data Types: 8-bit grayscale or indexed color, 16-bit unsigned integer, 32-bit floating-point and 32-bit RGB color.
File Formats: Open and save all supported data types as TIFF (uncompressed) or as raw data. Open and save GIF, JPEG and ASCII. Open BMP, DICOM and FITS. Open GIFs, JPEGs and raw data using a URL.
Speed: ImageJ is the world's fastest pure Java image processing program. It can filter a 2048x2048 image in 0.5 seconds. That's over 8 million pixels per second!
Plugins: Extend ImageJ by developing plugins using ImageJ's built in command recorder, editor and Java compiler. Many example plugins are provided.
Toolkit: Use ImageJ as a image processing toolkit (class library) to develop new applets and applications.
Image display: Tools are provided for zooming (1:32 to 32:1) and scrolling images. All analysis and processing functions work at any magnification factor.
Regions of Interest: Create rectangular, elliptical or irregular regions of interest (ROIs). Draw, fill, clear, filter or measure ROIs. Transfer an ROI to another image.
Image Enhancement: Supports smoothing, sharpening, edge detection, median filtering and thresholding on both 8-bit grayscale and RGB color images. Interactively adjust brightness and contrast of 8, 16 and 32-bit images.
Geometric Operations: Crop, scale, resize and rotate. Flip vertically or horizontally.
Analysis: Measure area, mean, standard deviation, min and max of ROI or entire image. Measure lengths and angles. Use real world measurement units such as millimeters. Calibrate using density standards. Generate histograms and profile plots.
Editing: Cut, copy or paste images or selections. Paste using AND, OR, XOR or "Blend" modes. Add text, arrows, rectangles, ellipses or polygons to images.
Color Processing: Split a 32-bit color image into RGB or HSV components. Merge 8-bit components into a color image. Convert an RGB image to 8-bit indexed color. Apply pseudo-color palettes to grayscale images.
Stacks: Display a "stack" of related images in a single window. Process an entire stack using a single command. Open a folder of images as a stack. Save stacks as multi-image TIFF files.
Java versions available for Mac OS, Mac OSX, Linux, Unix and Windows.

| IridiumFlares | | Description: | IridiumFlares is an application that predicts the flares produced by the constellation of communication satellites known as Iridium. A flare can be observed when a light source (such as the Sun or the Moon) is reflected by one of the satellite’s antennas. A flare is a very bright phenomenon (the brighter have a magnitude of -8.4) that can easily be observed if the date and location in the sky are known. This phenomenon generally occurs at least once a day, the morning before sun set or the evening after dawn. Some flares can be visible during the day. The duration of a flare is approximately from 3 to 8 seconds, therefore an application that predicts the exact date is required to have a maximum chance to correctly observe the phenomenon.
IridiumFlares has been written in the portable language Java (version 1.4). It requires a Java virtual machine (>= 1.4) and the Java3d package.
Note: You are advised to choose the «Java Web Start installer». | | | Version: | 0.3 beta | | Filesize: | 3.62 MB | | Added on: | 29-Dec-2004 | | Downloads: | 538 | | Category: | Java | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
