From LBT to TNG: an Easy Way to Inherit an Archiving System

摘要

The Large Binocular Telescope Archiving System and Web Interface (Knapic et al. 2011) is developed to be extremely flexible about adding new instruments. This flexibility is very useful also in the case of an archiving system rebuilding an extension for another telescope, in our case Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG). This article presents the archiving system structure (Smareglia et al. 2008), programs and web applications adaptations done in order to ingest, transfer and distribute files and web user interfaces. The interesting thing is that database structure is strongly modified to easy ingest any fits file like TNG ones but this is done with a very little code adjustment.
