Read FITS files with LabView

[052ftemu]

Hi,

is there any possibility to read FITS files with LabView?

FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) is a data format designed to provide a means for convenient exchange of astronomical data between installations whose standard internal formats and hardware differ.

I feel lost. Can someone give me an idea?

Thanks

hello 052ftemu,

i don't know any method to read FITS-files directly into LabVIEW, besides to read it binary and interpret it manually, but here are infos, viewers and converters:
