Importing observations from ALCDEF
The ALCDEF (Asteroid Lightcurve Data Exchange Format1) is a standardized format for reporting and exchanging asteroid photometry data. There's also an extensive Asteroid Lightcurve Photometry Database from where you can publically download light curves of thousands of asteroids in the ALCDEF format. Peranso subsequently allows to directly import ALCDEF files, as explained in Tutorial 19. |
