CoLiTec: Automatic processing of several series and paralleling.
DEMO

Dear prospective partners,

We would like to introduce you the results of CoLiTec (CLT) software implementation and the manual.

Statistics MPC
Software of Automatic Detection of Asteroids and Comets CoLiTec (CLT).
CoLiTec (CLT) was used by Leonid Elenin in his discovery of C/2010 X1 (Elenin) comet 10.12.2010 and P/2011 NO1 (Elenin) comet 07.07.2011.
CoLiTec (CLT) was used by A50 and H15 observatories in their discovery of more than 1000 asteroids (from 1.12. 2010).
Ready for collaboration..

Automatic processing of several series and paralleling.

We insist on the use of the present processing type only after calibration of program settings on the separate series. Otherwise, you will waste the time spent on several series’ processing. Automatic processing is applied only for one-type series and begins with selection of processing series through Series processing-> Series selection. As a result, you will see an option window of loading series where you can choose a folder with series of frames for processing. You have to distribute the series of frames among separate folders. You can specify the mask for the name of the processing series’ catalog and for the names of files in series in the menu Settings/Parameters/multiloading (Fig. 2.21). The series for processing also can be chosen from identified series in the same menu. To start the processing you have to use command Series processing ->Begin Series processing. Frames’ loading, marks’ formation and track’s search will be made automatically in all determined

series. Output files will be formed separately for each series and will be stored in folders with frames similar to the operation 2.3. At the same time, results’ files EXIT_CLT.mpc and EXIT_CLT.KAM with all tracks detected on processed series will be formed there.

Manual control of measurements will be successively done for each processed series. Files of specified series as well as results’ files of all processed series will be formed at the end.

During the batch processing of several series, the program will parallel processing into defined quantity of processor’s cores. To activate this function you have to choose Settings/Parameters/multiloading on the board «Enable selected zones’ multiprocessing» and to set «Enable to run application copies in multicore CPU system». Then in the window «Set max. number of used CPU cores» you have to choose the quantity of cores for processing. Attention! We don’t recommend to use too much of cores (more than 3), if RAM is not sufficient.

The final result of the program’s work will be represented by the file EXIT_CLT.mpc which is a standard measurements’ report sent to MPC (MPC-report). The known objects in this report will have the same marks as they have in MPC database.
