| | 26 | [http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/aips/ AIPS], the NRAO Astronomical Image Processing System is used primarily for reducing data from synthesis |
| | 27 | radio telescopes. General information is given in the [http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/aips/aips_faq.html#AIPS.8 AIPS FAQ]. |
| | 28 | We currently have version 31DEC06 installed. |

| | 30 | == MIRIAD == |
| | 31 | [http://www.atnf.csiro.au/computing/software/miriad/ MIRIAD] is radio interferometry data reduction package. |
| | 32 | It has particular emphasis on aspects of interest to users of the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). |
| | 33 | Miriad can be used for the reduction of continuum and spectral line experiments. Miriad, in particular, |
| | 34 | supports a number of niche areas. These include calibration and analysis of polarimetric data from the ATCA, multi-frequency |
| | 35 | synthesis imaging, mosaicing, ATCA pulsar bin mode, and some spectral line observing applications (e.g. Zeeman experiments). |
