<h1 class="noindent">External utilities</h1>

<p class="abstract">
Munipack source codes does not includes some usefull utilities
which can be used independently. Only graphical user interfaces
are provided.
</p>

<h1>Rawtran and dcraw</h1>

<p><a href="https://integral.physics.muni.cz/rawtran/">Rawtran</a>
is a conversion utility of raw photos produced by
digital cameras (.CR2, .RAW) to FITS format. One produces
files suitable for astronomical image processing (photometry,
astrometry, …).
</p>

<p class="indent">
By operation, rawtran is just only a wrapper around
<a href="https://www.dechifro.org/dcraw/">dcraw</a>.
Rawtran offers improved functionality over recommended utilities
in conversion of output of dcraw to FITS format.
Dcraw is not part of Munipack distribution and should be installed
separately. Fortunately, dcraw is included in many Linux distributions
(also one is easy to compile).
</p>


<h1>Fitspng</h1>

<p>
<a href="https://integral.physics.muni.cz/fitspng/">Fitspng</a> is
a conversion utility from images stored in FITS to images in PNG format.
One produces PNG images which can be directly displayed by standard
desktop tools and edited in usual manner. Fitspng can be very usefull for
batch processing or preview of FITS files on Web.
</p>

<p class="indent">
Fitspng take advantage of the high dynamical range
naturally provided by FITS format.
The conversion applies
advanced types of both luminosity or color conversions, scaling, etc.
to get visually satisfactory results in widelly spreaded
but restricted RGB color spaces.
</p>

<h1>Konve</h1>
<p>
<a href="https://integral.physics.muni.cz/konve/">Konve</a> is
a conversion utility from legacy SBIG ST-x format to FITS format. The
utility and the format itself are now obsolete (21. century).
</p>

<h1>Picko</h1>
<p>
<a href="https://integral.physics.muni.cz/picko/">Picko</a> is
a conversion utility from Christian Buil's PIC format to FITS format.
