AIPS does the data editing, calibration, and imaging for visibility
data after it is detected and initially recorded.  If the data from
your instrument can be recorded in what we view as standard forms,
then almost certainly AIPS can do something useful with them.

AIPS capabilities are described in detail in the aips CookBook:

Visibility data are discussed in some detail in Going AIPS especially
Chapter 14:
