I would be interested to see that information as well. -- Mark Taylor Astronomical Programmer Physics, Bristol University, UK m.b.taylor at bristol.ac.uk https://www.star.bristol.ac.uk/mbt/ From pebarrett at email.gwu.edu Wed Apr 3 08:30:52 2024 From: pebarrett at email.gwu.edu (Barrett, Paul) Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2024 08:30:52 -0400 Subject: [fitsbits] CFITSIO vs document {External} In-Reply-To: <93f9c49b-44a5-91c7-797a-34e931aec198@andromeda.star.bris.ac.uk> References: <7981B7DE-F573-417A-BCC8-1E833FC5683F@uw.edu> <93f9c49b-44a5-91c7-797a-34e931aec198@andromeda.star.bris.ac.uk> Message-ID: I've started implementing compression in FITS.jl. The current bottleneck is, except for gzip, implementing the various compression algorithms. Julia currently does not have packages for Rice, PLIO, and H-compress. -- Paul On Wed, Apr 3, 2024 at 6:22?AM Mark Taylor via fitsbits < fitsbits at listmgr.nrao.edu> wrote: > On Thu, 28 Mar 2024, Pierre Fernique via fitsbits wrote: > > > More generally, regarding the easiness / difficulty of implementing the > new > > document's recommendations, it would be interesting to know which > alternative > > libraries to CFITSIO have already partially or fully implemented the > document > > compression/decompression recommendations.
