Task: Tools
Description: Astronomy tools and utilities
 This metapackage will install small tools provided by Debian Astronomy
 packages. These tools handle smaller tasks, mainly dealing with FITS files.

Depends: rawtran
WNPP: 793963
Pkg-Description: RAW photo to FITS converter
 Rawtran is a wrapper around DCRAW utility (by D.Coffin) intended
 to convert raw photos in .CR2, .CRW, MRW, NEF, RAF, etc. formats
 to the general astronomical FITS image format by keeping all the photometry
 content.

Depends: neat
WNPP: 809504
Pkg-Description: Analysis of astronomical spectra with propagation of uncertainties
 Code for rapidly calculating temperatures, densities and abundances in
 planetary nebulae, HII regions and other emission line objects. Propagates
 uncertainties using a Monte Carlo technique.

Depends: alfa
WNPP: 809507
Pkg-Description: Automated line fitting algorithm
 ALFA measures the fluxes of emission lines in astronomical spectra.  It is
 fully automated and takes a few seconds to measure a spectrum containing
 hundreds of emission lines.  It uses a genetic algorithm to optimise the fit
 parameters.  It can also directly read FITS data cubes, making it particularly
 useful for spatially resolved spectroscopy.
