fits header converter

astrometry.net is a very interesting tool to determine astrometric information from an astronomical image.
This applet creates AVM metadata information from the newheader.fits file which is created by astrometry.net.

Additionally a link is created for displaying the image in Microsoft's World Wide Telescope (WWT)

If you don´t have an astrometry.net account (yet) you can click demo and see a sample fits header file and the resulting avm metadata, resp. the url for WWT.


Please report any issues to me.
