APIs & Libraries

Arcsecond.io is a software system. Behind the webapp available on any navigator, there are various other associated services and projects.

  • APIs - our backend RESTful APIs.
  • aa-js - our open-source library of astronomical algorithms in Typescript.
  • CLI - our open-source Command-Line Interface (a.k.a. the arcsecond terminal command).

Support services & repositories

In addition to that, we've put in place an external Status Page which monitor the availability of the various parts of our system, and send us alerts when something becomes unreachable.

On GitHub we also published a repository where 17 catalogues of standard stars were formatted and unified. These are catalogues found in the various pages of the websites of ESO, Keck, UKIRT, Gemini, IAC and the NOT.

There's also a public issues repository (but it isn't much used, people prefer to reach us directly).

Contact

And finally, we are reachable for any question, suggestions or bug reports in multiple ways:

Sorry, we don't use our Twitter/X account anymore, considering the awful state of this platform.
