Dear observers of asteroids and satellites!

The CoLiTec team has developed the Lemur software, which is able to detect the moving space objects (asteroids/satellites) in a series of astronomical frames. We hope that an automation level of the image processing we offer will allow you to reduce the time for routine processing operations and concentrate on the question of “where to look” and not “how to process” – at least that was our goal.

Who would benefit from the Lemur software especially? If you are engaged in asteroid or satellite surveys on a regular basis and receive large volumes of astronomical frames that need to be processed quickly, the Lemur software can solve this problem in an automated mode.

Lemur’s main features (more details on Features page):

  • search for the new frames in specified folders – the data are sent for processing as soon as the telescope has formed these frames

  • brightness equalization of frames with a built-in filter – flat frames are not needed

  • detection and estimation of parameters of any types of images in a frame (point/stroke) at the low signal-to-noise ratios

  • astrometric and photometric reduction of frames

  • detection of the moving asteroids or satellites

  • identification of the detected asteroids or satellites with the MPC or NORAD catalogs

  • visual control of the detected objects, creation of reports
