Summary: | International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 27-30, 1997 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada === Astronomers now communicate over Internet with robotic astronomical telescopes using a
specially designed instruction set. ATIS, Automatic Telescope Instruction Set, is designed
to communicate specific, technical instructions to a robotic telescope, facilitate data
retrieval and analysis, support a wide range of data formats, and also convey preference
information that describe the astronomers general needs for data acquisition. Over a dozen
telescopes now use ATIS and more are under construction. |
