Unimap: помогите протестировать?

russian Language too?

Only if you translate it

russian Language too?

Yes, at the moment only the top menu options are translated and that with automated online translators. If you go in menu->Options->Preferences and there in Formats tab - you will find a language options. Once you select and ok you will need to close the application and start it again.

Well, I am sure if people find the application useful that they will help me translated in russian as well

Hi Larry!

Thank you for the very interesting project. I tried to use your program and I have several questions...

1. Can Unimap read some parameters directly from FITS header? For example OBJCTRA, OBJCTDEC (or CRVAL) and information about image scale?
2. What do you think about add UCAC3 support?
3. I tried to load asteroids in the field, after very long process (fetching ASTORB data from Vizier, translate it to local format and sorting) Unimap stop respond...
4. Can I manually measure astrometric position of object on the image?

1. Can Unimap read some parameters directly from FITS header? For example OBJCTRA, OBJCTDEC (or CRVAL) and information about image scale?

It used to but not at the moment - I have a bug with fits since unicode conversion and possible with the latest version of cfitsio library. I working to fix it and and it be working in the next update.

2. What do you think about add UCAC3 support?

It will be added in the next update as well.

3. I tried to load asteroids in the field, after very long process (fetching ASTORB data from Vizier, translate it to local format and sorting) Unimap stop respond...

This should work. If you can send me/email the image along with the details (date/time etc) I can try to see what's happening.

4. Can I manually measure astrometric position of object on the image?

What do you mean by manually measure the astrometric position ?

OK, thanks!

I test this function on "capricornus" image from Unimap package.

What do you mean by manually measure the astrometric position ?

Can I calculate coordinates for any object by clicking on it?

[larrylart]

Can I calculate coordinates for any object by clicking on it?

Yes, double click on it and it should popup a window with details.
I will check the asteroids problem and get back to you.

Yes, double click on it and it should popup a window with details.

OK, but perhaps you can create another separate command for calculate coordinates and magnitudes. Standart "double click" work slowly.

And can I measure centroid which not identified by stars catalogues?

Yes, I think you right ... a faster way just to get the basic info could be handy - I will add this to the todo list.

And can I measure centroid which not identified by stars catalogues?

Yes, you just need to do the first step (detection) which will calculate the centroids data. Then use the same double click - for now - but in this case it should be faster because it wont fetch online data.

[LeonidOS]

OK Larry!

Do you use selfmade object extraction algorithm, or SExtractor?

I'm very interested in Automatic Object Discovery And Trajectory Reconstruction feature, can you provide more detail information about this feature?

Then we will sort all trajectoriesby highest score and add them the group profile.

How Unimap calculate score for the each trajectory? What trajectory have highest score?
