About this technology

Overview

Radio Astronomy Software Tools} is a collection of softwarepackages that have proven useful in doing radio astronomy with NASA's Deep Space Network. It includes a monitor and control system that is overlaid on the operational monitor and control to provide features necessary or useful for conducting radio astronomy research. The collection may provide a quick way to start a small single dish radio astronomy ab initio. It is also able to manage a telescope system in which all subsystems have their own, network-accessible controllers.
