NEW ASTRONOMICAL IMAGE PROCESSING SOFTWARE - FIRST RESULTS OF USING

A unified system named the Centralized Processing of Optical Sensors Data (CPOSD), was installed at the National Space Facilities Control and Test Center of State Space Agency of Ukraine (NSFCTC), based on the client-server technology. Implementation of the system made it possible to obtain measurements in a “pseudo-real” time scale, i.e. 15-30 minutes (at some “average night quality”) after receiving the last image of a separate sequences of frames from the telescope.
With this software the NSFCTC is capable of processing both observations of artificial Earth satellites (including space debris) and Near-Earth Objects.
The software development approach is to minimize the observer's workload with details when processing large volumes of received images, because the main task is to organize and conduct observations (selection of objects and observation modes).
Currently, an update is being prepared to add a function for generating ultra-precise light curves and visual control of data accuracy, with convenient display of graphs, the ability to delete measurements with large errors, and save measurements in various formats.
The report will present the main features of using the CPOSD.
