Hi astronomers,
e-astronomer.com has taken the initiative to build a digital database of planetary images or sketches from all around the world. The site is under development currently in version 1.0 and will gradually add new features. Our plans are to be able to find photographs based on the planet’s celestial options like CM CMII CMII LS etc.
Who can upload pictures?
Photographs can be uploaded any amateur astronomer, whether he is an experienced or new entrant to planetary imaging and recording. We expect to upload not only your images but also your sketches. You can scan them and upload them too. Everything matters in amateur astronomy.
How can I upload my photos?
e-astronomer.com has developed a friendly application for the astronomers to be able to upload their images as simple as possible. This application is called (PISubmitter) Planetary Image Submitter.
How can I download it?
You download the application from the following links as a .msi installation file or as .exe executable.
Download here: Planetary Image Submitter (PiSubmitter) Version 1.0 MSI
Download here: Planetary Image Submitter (PiSubmitter) Version 1.0 EXE
What is the required format and type of uploaded images?
The name of your image or sketch must be formatted in the following form:
INITIALS-PLANET-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS-FILTER.png or .jpg or .gif
Example: If your name is “John Doe” then:
File name should be: JD-JUPITER-2019-02-21-203003-IRCUT.png
INITIALS: Max 4 Characters
DON’T WORRY!!! THE CONVERSION TO THE ADEQUATE FORMAT IS DONE AUTOMATICALLY BY THE APPLICATION.
How can I delete a picture?
