| Abstract: |
Finland joined the European Southern Observatory in 2004, providing a contribution in kind of software expertise as part of its joining fee. This significant resource, called the Sampo project, will be devoted to exploring the options for the future of data reduction and analysis in an ESO context, to understanding user requirements and to performing a series of major pilot projects to investigate different technologies, approaches and architectures. The Sampo project1 will run for three years and aims to prepare the ESO community for the data analysis and reduction challenges of the next decades.
The first major Sampo project is PyMidas, an interface from Python to the ESO-MIDAS data analysis and reduction system. This paper describes the motivation for this project, how it has been implemented and gives some examples of PyMidas in action. |
