Tools for FEROS and La Silla provided by ESO

Here is a short collection of tools for FEROS provided by ESO:

Preparation of observations

• Exposure time calculator

Weather and environment

• FEROS Temperature and Humidity Monitor
• La Silla Meteo Monitor
• MPG/ESO 2.2m Environmental Monitor
• Real-time all-sky camera

Data reduction Software

• FEROS DRS (in some Linux Versions, e.g. some SuSE linux, you'll have to replace the bin/ferosPrepDateDir with this version of the file)

Tools for the preparation and execution of observations

Here is a short collection of tools I found very helpful (for sure not complete!):

Preparation of the observations

• Object visibility
• Finding chart generator

During the observations

• Sun and Moon Altitude/Azimuth Table
• Collection of Las Campanas weather pages (very useful, since Las Campanas is very close by)
