Descripción
The ISOPHOT Interactive Analysis PIA, is a calibration, scientific
analysis and visualization tool for accessing and processing ISOPHOT
data. ISOPHOT is one of the instruments on board the Infrared Space
Observatory ISO, launched in November 1995 by the European Space Agency.
PIA is an IDL based package, comprising around 1500 routines including a
user friendly graphical interface. All the capabilities of input/output,
processing and visualization can be reached from window menus, for all
the different ISOPHOT sub-systems in all the different levels of data
reduction. This applies, starting from digital raw data, coming from the
ISO telemetry, to the final level of calibrated images, spectra,
multi-filter, multi-aperture photometry. In this article the needs for
such a dedicated package are explained, its development and main design
features are described, and an overview of the PIA capabilities in the
different areas is given.
