Description : Minimal buy-in FITS library and utility package
Funtools, is a "minimal buy-in" FITS library and utility package
developed at the High Energy Astrophysics Division of SAO. The
Funtools library provides simplified access to a wide array of file
types: standard astronomical FITS images and binary tables, raw arrays
and binary event lists, and even tables of ASCII column data. A
sophisticated region filtering library (compatible with ds9) filters
images and tables using boolean operations between geometric shapes,
support world coordinates, etc. Funtools also supports advanced
capabilities such as optimized data searching using index files.
This package is built in preparation to build saods9
