6 Software availability

  Fortran programs interfacing the TD with aperture synthesis software and with GaussFit are available via the Lund Observatory Internet address http://www.astro.lu.se/$\sim$lennart/TD/. The program td2uv.f extracts the TD for a given HIP identifier and converts them into a UV-FITS file that can be used e.g. by Difmap. The program td2gf.f similarly extracts TD data and generates a data file suitable as input for GaussFit. Sample data files, additional information on the TD (including descriptions of the known errors), and links for retrieving aperture synthesis software and GaussFit are also given at this site.
