Repository Map for Senior Thesis Project

In 2021, I worked on a year-long (Feb - Nov 2021) thesis project for my BSc Honours in Astronomy degree. The aim of the project was to develop code to process, clean, and analyze datasets of astronomical images of comets and asteroids taken using the 1.8-metre telescope at Mt. John Observatory in New Zealand. As a result of this project, I have developed 5 distinct code repositories which work together to complete the task of processing and analyzing these datasets. This Markdown file lists the repositories in the order they are supposed to be used.

About the Data: The datasets of images are stored on local university servers and are not currently publicly accessible. They are .FITS files, which is a common image file format used in astronomy. I collected these data myself at the 1.8-metre telescope at Mt. John Observatory during 2020 - 2021. There are 3 types of image files, ALERT, which are telescope CCD images of the comets and asteroids I observed. Ther
