... Bojan Nikolic web pages home . ... There are quite a few large astronomical data analysis packages like IRAF and CASA which offer tools for filtering and smoothing of astronomical images. ... In particular I found that importing a FITS file into CASA, doing some smoothing and re-exporting to FITS introduced enough changes to the format of to the structure of the image that I could easily continue analysis of the image outside the CASA package. ...
