OPERA Pipeline Processed data

Processed data is presented in 2 formats:
  • a FITS image table format
  • the original Libre-ESpRIT ASCII table format (*.s files). More information about this format can be found here: Upena/LE


    • FITS FORMAT PROCESSED FILES (*i.fits, *m.fits, *p.fits, *q.fits)

    Format Type of data
    i.fits Spectroscopic
