Welcome to the pstools documentation¶
Pointing Scheduler Tools (PSTools) is a Python package to help develop observing strategies for astronomical telescopes.
pstools provides utilities to:
generate pointing list for specific telescope, depending on its searching strategy, i.e. tiling or galaxy monitoring search.
evaluate trigger HEALPix map via Healpy/HEALPix, i.e. GW, GRB, or AMON.
optimize observing strategy in order to cover effective the trigger probability, the local luminous mass, visibility, and the detection efficiency.
