This weekend I'll be taking around 50 CCD images with my Celestron CPC 8in. telescope and would like to use python to analyzie the images. Does anyone have any experience doing this?
Check out the python wrapper for OpenCV: http://docs.opencv.org/trunk/doc/py_tutorials/py_tutorials.html This should provide all the power you need to do any image processing tasks you require. And there are some great tutorials to help you get started.
