Abstract: (arXiv)
SMART is a software package written in IDL to reduce and analyze Spitzer data from all four modules of the Infrared Spectrograph, including the peak-up arrays. The software is designed to make full use of the ancillary files generated in the Spitzer Science Center pipeline so that it can either remove or flag artifacts and corrupted data and maximize the signal-to-noise in the extraction routines. It may be run in both interactive and batch mode. The software and Users Guide will be available for public release in December 2004. We briefly describe some of the main features of SMART including: visualization tools for assessing the data quality, basic arithmetic operations for either 2-d images or 1-d spectra, extraction of both point and extended sources and a suite of spectral analysis tools.
