eSTAR Integration

ORAC-DR is also integrated with the eScience Telescopes for Astronomical Research (eSTAR) project, which is designed to automatically detect and follow up on transient astronomical objects using manned and robotic telescopes. Using the catalogue generated in catalogue generation ORAC-DR will automatically send a trigger to the eSTAR network containing a FITS file of the final mosaic and the catalogue. This step is only done when an observation is taken as part of an eSTAR project, i.e. there is a RMTAGENT header and its value is ESTAR.
