Iris 2.1

Features

  • Aggregate spectro-photometric data from VO and non-VO data sources
  • Fit complex models to data (with Sherpa)
  • Import custom models and Templates
  • Visualize, Explore, and Filter data
  • Stack datasets
  • Interpolate, Shift, Integrate SEDs.
  • Save and Export data

Overview

Major infrastructure and GUI overhaul.
STILTS API for plotting (Thanks Mark!).

Visualizer, Metadata Browser, and Fitting Tool
now heavily rely on STIL's StarTable.

We can now more easily add capabilities.

Overview

Iris now supports high-resolution spectra
and broad-band photometry.

User Experience improved

  • Integrated Fitting Tool window
  • Plot model components
  • Mask points
  • SED Stacker GUI redesigned

New VizieR photometry service integrated client.

Future

  • Python/Sherpa API for bulk analysis
  • Improved Templates support
  • Update documentation
