# Astronomical Observation Tools
|
|
|
|
Astronomical Observation Tools (Astrobs Tools) is composed of:
|
|
- SCOPE: a code to get the sky coordinate limits from observation constraints;
|
|
- EQUATOR: a software to organize targets before observations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
Astrobs Tools requires `Python 3.10` or newer
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
First step is to initialize a virtual environment for the software with:
|
|
```
|
|
python3 -m venv ./venv
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then install the required packages with:
|
|
```
|
|
source activate.sh && pip install -r requirements.txt && deactivate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You may also require to authorize the execution of Astrobs Tools with:
|
|
```
|
|
chmod u+x Astrobs-Tools.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To launch Astrobs tools, simply execute:
|
|
```
|
|
./Astrobs-Tools.sh
|
|
```
|
|
Then select the desired code
|
|
|
|
### SCOPE
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
### EQUATOR
|
|
|
|
First, select a configuration file (if none, default is selected).
|
|
Then, select the action you wish to perform.
|
|
|
|
Available commands (not case sensitive):
|
|
- `help`, `h`, `?`: show this page
|
|
- `quit`, `exit`, `q`: quit the current code
|
|
(WARNING: this does not save the current state!)
|
|
- `write`, `save`: write the current table in a file
|
|
(no options available yet)
|
|
- `read [filename]`, `open [filename]`: loads the file "filename"
|
|
in the current table (no additional options available yet)
|
|
- `calibration`, `calib`: adds a calibration in the target list
|
|
- `simbad [object name]`, `object [object name]`:
|
|
add an object from simbad
|
|
- `search [ra] [dec] [radius]`, `region [ra] [dec] [radius]`:
|
|
search a region centred on the ra/dec coordinates,
|
|
with a given radius (coordinates should be expressed as
|
|
`12h30m30s`, `90d30m30s` or `90.555d`)
|
|
- `sidereal`, `st`: computes the sidereal time for each target
|
|
- `sequence`, `seq`: computes the sequence order for each
|
|
target
|
|
- `check`: check if all targets are in the observation field
|
|
|
|
General actions:
|
|
- `cancel`, `back`: cancels the current action
|
|
- `yes`, `y`, `1`: yes
|
|
- `no`, `n`, `0`, or anything else: no
|
|
- `all`, `*`: select all
|
|
- `done`, `ok`: confirm, save the current state and quit
