This is the ORAC Data Reduction pipeline software (ORAC-DR)

You can use it to reduce astronomical data from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope, the Anglo-Australian Telescope and the Las Cumbres Observatory.

The directories are laid out as follows:

  src/        Source code tree
      bin        Executables
      etc        Initialisation scripts
      lib        Infrastructure code
      recipes    Per-instrument data reduction high level recipes
      primitives Per-instrument data reduction low level control code
      admin      Pre-processing support scripts
      cgi        Web interfaces
      docs       Documentation
      gui        GUI definition files
      images     Support images
      t          Infrastructure tests
      uml        Class layouts (currently out of date)

  cal/      Calibration support files per instrument

The check out repository can be used directly so long as the following environment variables are set

  • ORAC_DIR Set to the src directory
  • ORAC_PERL5LIB Set to the src/lib/perl5 directory
  • ORAC_PERLBIN Set to a suitable perl binary
  • ORAC_CAL_ROOT Set to the cal directory

and then source the src/etc/login and src/etc/cshrc (or profile) scripts.
