SysTools is a library of utility routines & classes for Borland Delphi, C++Builder, & environments that support COM. It includes 1-D & 2-D bar codes, sorting, money routines, logging, high-precision math, a run-time math expression analyzer, & much more.

chklinks is a non-threaded Perl link checker. It helps finding broken links on your website. It does not raises many simultaneously connections for its job, run out of the resources and crash your system in a moment.

libTheSky is a Fortran library to compute positions of celestial bodies (Moon, planets, stars) and events (conjunctions, eclipses). It forms the core of the software that produces the Dutch popular-astronomy website http://hemel.waarnemen.com

This library is used to calculate the position of a satellite or the moon on any geographical location on the earth's surface. The Library is writte in C++ and OOP. The Actual Status of the Library can download from the svn-repository. On my website oe5tpo.com can you find infos about satpos, but this infos are all in German!

SolTrack is a simple, free, fast and accurate C/C++ routine to compute the position of the Sun. The code can be used to track the Sun on low-specs machine, such as a PLC or a microcontroller, and can be used for e.g. (highly) concentrated (photovoltaic) solar power. SolTrack has been developed by Marc van der Sluys, Paul van Kan and Jurgen Reintjes, of the Lectorate of Sustainable Energy at the HAN University of Applied Sciences in Arnhem, The Netherlands. The code is based on the astronomical Fortran library libTheSky and can be used, modified and distributed under the conditions of version 3 of the GNU Public Licence.

CRUSH is a pioneering reduction and imaging suite for many astronomical cameras operating at far-infrared, submillimeter and millimeter wavelengths, such as SHARC-2, SCUBA-2, LABOCA, GISMO, or SOFIA/HAWC+ (to name a few).

The Mars Rover Simulator project is based on the evolutionary robotics paradigm where an artificial agent acquires its skills through the process of artificial evolution. This simulator can be useful to evolve neural network controllers for the rover

The Aciqra Library Of Astronomical Calculations (Aloac) is a library of theories and formulas relating to astronomy to track planets, the sun and moon as well as conversions between coordinate systems. Formerly known as Aciv.

Ciclope Astro is a Web 2.0 application to control an astronomical observatory (telescopes, cameras, domes, etc.). It contains other tools as album (folksonomy & votes), forum, news (RSS), karma system. Developed using the Google Web Toolkit framework.

This package can be used for further development of package needs to deal with 3D geometrical relationship. It provides class for Vector, Point, Coordinate, transformations and also provides functions for dealing with relationships between them.

JOSAST ( Java Open Source Amateur Satellite Toolkit) is a set of java source code used for amateur satellite, hamradio and also astronomia activities ... Reusable package and complete software should be available.

jSGP is a Java implementation of the five SGP/SDP propagators described in NORAD's Spacetrack Report No. 3.

This module implements the serial commands supported by the Celestron NexStar hand control (HC) and SkyWatcher/Orion SynScan HC. This applies to the Celestron: NexStar GPS, NexStar GPS-SA, NexStar iSeries, NexStar SE Series, NexStar GT, CPC, SLT, Advanced-VX, Advanced-GT, CGE, CGEM etc. SkyWatcher: EQ5, HEQ5, EQ6 (Pro), AZ-EQ5 GT, AZ-EQ6 GT, EQ8 etc. and the corresponding Orion mounts. Communication to the hand control is 9600 bits/sec, no parity and one stop bit via the RS-232 port on the base of the hand control. For extended example how to use this perl module look in to the distribution folder for nexstarctl.pl. This program is a complete console tool to control NexStar telesctopes based on NexStarCtl module. To control network based telescopes nexbridge must be used on the remote site. https://sourceforge.net/projects/nexbridge/

SITools2 is a new CNES generic tool performed by a joint effort between CNES and scientific laboratories. The aim of SITools is to provide a self-manageable data access layer deployed on already existing scientific laboratory databases.

Better than NASA--avoid sending *your* Mars probe off to empty space! SafeUnits is a Java-based project providing measurement-related classes whose instances, when exported, can only be imported to classes of matching types. NASA, just a friendly jibe

VSMap3D is an OpenGL universe explorer for Vega Strike universes. So far it features: route planning, system/sector selection, faction ownership visualization

bc2ld is a command line tool to translate molecular database files from BASECOL (obs. of Paris) to LAMDA format (Leiden University). This command line tool has academic use purposes.

Imagine Numerical Recipes in the 21st century. Fast object-oriented Java code for numerical analysis, with a special focus on astronomical application (coordinate conversions, WCS projections etc.)

This project has be renamed to jnum and moved under the crush-software project. No further SVN commits here...

pyastrolib is a python library providing professional astronomers a robust set of tools for astronomical data analysis. This project will provide all the functionality as NASA's IDL Astronomy User's Library in addition to other planned features.
