The VLTI Calibrator Selector Tool is a tool intended to assist in the selection of suitable interferometric calibrators for VLTI observations with MIDI and AMBER. It uses a model of the VLTI and its instruments to assess the fringe visibility, given the observed bandpass, the geometry, spectrum, and coordinates of the target and the time at which the observations are to be made. ... The tool offers an HTML/Java based interface and consists of two pages. ... The quality flag depends on LDD_chi2. ...
