Data I/O Overview

AstroImages.jl

Repository

Documentation

Load, manipulate, and visualize astronomical images

• Works with the FileIO.jl interface

FITSIO.jl

Repository

Documentation

Reading and writing FITS files

• Interact with header data units (HDUs), FITS headers, and FITS data: both images and tables
• FITS tables follow the Tables.jl interface, allowing seamless integration with the rich data ecosystem, like CSV.jl, DataFrames.jl, etc.

CFITSIO.jl

Repository

Documentation

Reading and writing FITS files

• Low-level wrapper for cfitsio
• The c interface can be directly accessed with the CFITSIO_jll package

mweastwood/CasaCore.jl

Repository

Documentation

Tables and measurement sets for radio astronomy

• Wrapper for CasaCore
• Interface for CASA tables and measures

emmt/OIFITS.jl

Repository

Support for OI-FITS

• Read and write OI-FITS optical interferometry data format

aplavin/VLBIData.jl

Repository

Documentation

Work with data formats common in very long baseline interferometry (VLBI)

• Read interferometric visibilities (uvfits), images (fits), and source models
• Minimal writing support for source models

aplavin/Difmap.jl

Repository

Documentation

Wrapper for the Difmap program used in synthesis imaging

• Execute Difmap scripts, handle inputs/outputs and logs
• Display images and plots from Difmap in interactive Julia environments
