  1. I have also added two small video tutorials (basic) here: http://larryo.org/work/information/unimap/support.html I am not sure if this format is ok, feedback will help before I go on to make better tutorials. Larry
  2. Version 0.0.3 pre-alpha is now available for download from: http://larryo.org/work/information/unimap/download.html Larry
  3. Version 0.0.2 pre-alpha is now available for download from: http://larryo.org/work/information/unimap/download.html Larry
  4. I am wondering if people here find this application useful? At the concept level what do you think I should change/add to improve it? --- Αναρωτιέμαι αν οι άνθρωποι εδώ βρίσκουν αυτήν την εφαρμογή χρήσιμη; Σε επίπεδο ιδέα τι νομίζεις ότι πρέπει να αλλάξετε / προσθέσετε τη βελτίωσή του;
  5. A new version has been released with: - updated the star common names list with a better one - added extension files one and two to tycho2 - added map for common names with tycho2 - fixed 2mass catalog names display error - fixed show/hide all objects from menu->view objects - fixed search in spiral - which is now set default as it's faster (instead of swipe) - added a simple method to check/notify on updates - some minor bug fixes Also, note that now there is a forum on the site to discuss more in depth the technical problems. Larry
  6. This for a start could be a problem - I have not test it yet on vista. I was hooping that if it will work on 7 it should on vista as well. Most of the problems will be related to permissions. Yes, absolutely agree - i need to make some time to create a few tutorials on how to do the plate solving in different cases. There are two sections to do that - assets wise (observer profile) from menu->options->observer which will be used mostly for image tagging, hints. And from the hardware/device drivers point of view to actually connect with your equipment go in menu->options->instruments. You don't necesary need to download any catalog (you can do that if you want to either work faster or offile) - it should work with the catalogs remotely - that if you have internet access on that computer. At the end of the process it should get you image solved - objects marked with the catalogs names. Can you email me some of these you try to solve? Also let me know what settings you used for them ie catalogs/hints, etc. Many thanks! Larry
  7. I have made some adjutments to the installer and now it should work ok on windows 7 as well. Also fixed some bugs. Anyone here tried the application yet? ---- Έχω σημειώσει κάποια adjutments στον εγκαταστάτη και τώρα πρέπει να εργαστούν ok για τα παράθυρα 7 επίσης. Καθορίστηκαν επίσης ορισμένα σφάλματα. Όποιος προσπάθησε εδώ με την εφαρμογή ακόμα; Larry
  8. I apologize for the delay as my life got slightly complicated lately. To make it worst my pc crashed last week - I think the cpu is screwed (it will power off as soon as it gets even a little load) and the only way around it was to under-clock it to 1ghz and 0.7v and now I will have to install everything. You can download and test the very first pre-alpha release from here: http://larryo.org/work/information/unimap/test0/unimap_setup_pa_0.exe I know there are still bugs and room for of improvements, optimization, etc. "Unfortunately" I have built this application so big and I got so little time lately that I should probably focus on getting the core functionality working right and here any suggestions and ideas will really help. It is compiled on XP. On windows 7 you might encounter crashes (mostly due to file/io permissions) – I will get them fixed as soon as I will get some time. Larry
  9. Sorry for the delay ... I've been held up with some personal problems for the past few weeks. Also the conversion to unicode took longer then expected and some functions got slow down because of it to the point that I had to rewrite them to make them usable. I will email the pre-alpha for testing to those who emailed or pm me and after that I will post the link to the alpha version here. Larry
  10. Got that! I am currently working to convert it to unicode so that it will support various translations and if someone here whishes to help me with the translation as well that will be great! Larry
  11. Well my future plans are to release this project free and opensource (for windows, linux and perhaps macosx)… if all goes well, I mean if people show interest in it and is workable. I might be looking for sponsorship at some point to support a big central database though which amateur astronomers from all over the world can share image resolved with astrometry data etc. Larry Καλά τα μελλοντικά σχέδιά μου είναι να απελευθερώσουν αυτό το σχέδιο δωρεάν και ανοικτού κώδικα (για Windows, Linux και ίσως MacOSX) ... αν όλα πάνε καλά, εννοώ αν οι άνθρωποι δείχνουν ενδιαφέρον για αυτό και είναι εφαρμόσιμο. Θα μπορούσα να ψάχνει για χορηγία σε κάποιο σημείο να υποστηρίξει μια μεγάλη κεντρική βάση δεδομένων που αν και ερασιτέχνες αστρονόμοι από όλο τον κόσμο μπορούν να μοιραστούν εικόνας επιλυθεί με τα δεδομένα Αστρομετρία κλπ. ????
  12. Hi, You can check a preview of my project at: http://larryo.org/work/information/unimap/index.html I started this project back in 2004 as I realize that more and more people get into astrophotography but most will go no further then framing nice pictures. So I thought that it will be good to have a simple to use tool to allow amateur astronomers to do plate-solving(detect and match your image against star catalogs), so they can explore and learn more about these marvelous images so I started to develop this project. Now after literally tens of thousands of development hours you can just load your astrophoto and in a few clicks learn almost everything is known about your image, what are the stars, galaxies, nebulas, radio sources, x-ray/gamma bursts, supernovas, extra solar planets or asteroids, comets and even artificial earth satellites passing through. Also, you can get more advanced information like various measurements available (including spectral) and links to articles/abstracts talking about objects and/in that area in the sky. On top of that I added several tool to help amateur astronomer to better plan his observing session like an on click collection of environmental/weather data, instruments management/control and also an online collaboration interface to allow amateur astronomers to easily exchange/review the data. Anyone interested to help me test it and/or feedback will be appreciated! Larry
