About SMART

SMART stands for Spectroscopy Modeling Analysis and Reduction Tool. It is a software tool developed for processing Spitzer (SIRTF) IRS observations. It allows the user to perform a wide variety of processing and analysis tasks in real time and can be used in either of two ways :

• Interactively through a GUI window interface.
• In script (batch processing) mode from a command line.

SMART has been developed by the IRS team at Cornell. Additional code has been developed as plug-ins for SMART. These include:

• A modified ATV (developed at SSC-Caltech and Cornell).
• IDP3 for image analysis of our peak up cameras (developed at Arizona University).
• A defringing tool (developed at Leiden University, SRON at Groningen University and Caltech).

The ISAP team team kindly provided source code for ISAP Version 2.1. This code has been modified to produce the IDEA window for use in IRS analysis. The ISAP Development Team included people from CESR, IAS, IPAC, MPE, QMW, RAL and SRON.
