Abstract: |
MOSCA (MultiObject Spectroscopy Common Algorithms) is a C/C++ library developed
at ESO to ease the reduction of data from multi-object spectrographs. The main
project goals are: pluggable design, self-calibration approach,
instrument agnostic and use of modern C++ features.
Recent versions of the FORS and VIMOS instrument pipelines are based on
MOSCA, demonstrating that the library is generic enough to be used for
different instruments. This brings benefits in terms of scientific testing and
maintenance costs. |
