Moons: An Analysis Module for Vicar Files

General

This packages/program was created for my bachelor's thesis for the Astronomy department at University of Oulu, Finland

It consists of a reader for Vicar Image files and a viewer for analyzing images. The purpose is to extract shadow data from the images and analyze shadow contrast.

Info

Needs Cassini mission kernels to provide mission data

Not here since uncompressed 37Gb or compressed 16Gb

Uses NASA NAIF Spice which is used through SpiceyPy wrapper

Parses VICAR2 file format.

Modules

VicarUI - viewer and analysis for images

VicarUtil - reading images

Easiest to install with pip install -e vicarutil and pip install -e vicarui in a Python virtual environment.

PyCharm is highly recommended if you want need to make any changes.
