p5-GPS-Babel is a perl interface to gpsbabel.
Phoon displays the phase of the moon, either currently or at a
specified date / time. Unlike other such programs, which just
tell you how long since first quarter or something like that,
phoon shows you the phase with a cute little picture. You can
vary the size of the picture with the -l flag, but only some
sizes have pictures defined - other sizes use @'s.
Geo::METAR is a perl module that processes METAR information from NOAA sources.
Starlink::AST provides a perl wrapper to the Starlink AST library.
The Starlink AST library provides facilities for transforming coordinates
from one system to another in an object oriented manner. Multiple
coordinate frames can be associated with a data set and it is also
possible to generate automatic mappings between frames.
Coordinate frame objects can be imported from FITS headers and from
NDF files.
Weather::Underground is a perl module which provides a simple OO interface to
retrieving weather data for a geographic location. It does so by querying
wunderground.com and parsing the returned results.
A ZConf based library to facilitate fetching weather information
and dumping it or printing it via a template.
zcweather - Fetches the weather for the specified location.
ptiger is a Tcl/Tk/Tkgeomap script that uses wdgeomap to display U.S.
Census Burea populated places on an interactive geographic map.
To run it, type ptiger on the command line. After a few seconds, a map
should appear. Adjust the view by Dragging or Double-Clicking. As the
cursor moves, a label below the map displays the cursor location and
the azimuth and range from the + marker to the cursor. Move the + marker
by Right-Double-Clicking. The map has dots at places with population
greater than a user selected threshold. Moving the cursor over a dot
labels the place with its name and displays the population in another
label below the map. In addition to the wdgeomap menus, a Places menu
enables adjustment of the population threshold and dot size. There is
also a Find menu that does a case insensitive regular expression search
for a named place.
py-RO is a collection of utilities including general algorithms,
astronomical transformations and Tkinter widgets.
py-aipy collects together tools for radio astronomical
interferometry. In addition to pure-python phasing,
calibration, imaging, and deconvolution code, this package
includes interfaces to MIRIAD (a Fortran interferometry
package) and HEALPix (a package for representing spherical
data sets), and some math/fitting routines from SciPy.
SAOimage (pronounced S-A-0-image) displays astronomical images in the X11
window environment. It was written by Mike Van Hilst while he was at the
Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) in 1990 and is now maintained by
Doug Mink also at the SAO.
Online help and documentation are on the webpage.
Image files can be read directly, or image data may be passed through a
named pipe (Unix) or a mailbox (VMS) from IRAF display tasks. SAOimage
provides a large selection of options for zooming, panning, scaling,
coloring, pixel readback, display blinking, and region specification. User
interactions are generally performed with the mouse, but keyboard
alternatives are often available.
The SAOimage desktop includes, a main image display window, a button menu
panel, a display magnifier, a pan and zoom reference image, and a color bar.
A color table graph window can be brought up by clicking on the color bar.
