This document describes a FITS convention developed by the IRAF Group (D. Tody, R. Seaman, and N. Zarate) at the National Optical Astronomical Observatory (NOAO). This convention is implemented by the fgread/fgwrite tasks in the IRAF fitsutil package. It was first used in May 1999 to encapsulate preview PNG-format graphics files into FITS files in the NOAO High Performance Pipeline System. A FITS extension of type FOREIGN provides a mechanism for storing an arbitrary file or tree of files in FITS, allowing it to be restored to disk at a later time.
This document describes a convention for compressing FITS binary tables that is modeled after the FITS tiled-image compression method (White et al. 2009) that has been in use for about a decade. The input table is first optionally subdivided into til
The checksum keywords described here provide an integrity check on the information contained in FITS HDUs. (Header and Data Units are the basic components of FITS files, consisting of header keyword records followed by optional associated data record
This document describes a convention for compressing n-dimensional images and storing the resulting byte stream in a variable-length column in a FITS binary table. The FITS file structure outlined here is independent of the specific data compression
The FITS is the standard file format in astronomy, and it has been extended to agree with astronomical needs of the day. However, astronomical datasets have been inflating year by year. In case of ALMA telescope, a ~ TB scale 4-dimensional data cube
We present an experiment performed to understand the polarization convention adopted for band 4 (550--900 MHz) of the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT). For that we observed the pulsar B1702--19 in this band, both in interferometry and
