 Pocket StarCalc | | Description: | Pocket StarCalc is a small and fast astronomical planetarium program.
Capabilities include:
. Building the sky image for any moment in time (from 9999 B.C. to 9999 A.D.), taking into account the precession, nutation and refraction for any location on Earth, with any step forward or back (set manually or automatically); synchronizing the program time with the computer's system time.
. Drawing the Sun, the Moon and the planets of the Solar system; calculation; displaying detailed information.
. Displaying the Sun and the Moon as disks of an appropriate size; showing the Moon phase; displaying the umbra and penumbra of the Earth during lunar eclipses.
. Displaying planets as disks of an appropriate size and showing their phases (if the zoom value is large).
. Calculating and displaying the major satellites of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus with detailed visibility information.
. Displaying 9000 stars with detailed information.
. Displaying the constellation figure lines.
. Displaying constellation boundaries.
. Displaying constellation names.
. Displaying the horizon with cardinal points.
. Displaying the 139 brightest and most interesting galaxies, nebulae and star clusters with detailed information.
. Displaying the horizontal coordinate grid.
. Displaying the equatorial coordinate grid.
. Possibility to view any sky area and zoom it in/out.
. "Object locking" mode in which selected objects are automatically centered on the screen during any operations.
. Saving the sky image as a bmp-file.
. Saving and restoring the program state.
. Searching for a point in the sky by its equatorial or horizontal coordinates.
. Searching for various celestial objects.
Requires Windows CE v3.0 or later. ARM, MIPS and SH3 versions available. | | | Filesize: | 0 bytes | | Added on: | 11-Sep-2003 | | Downloads: | 1010 | | Rating: | 9.0 (1 Vote) | | Category: | Pocket PC | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
| Pocket Stars PDA | | Description: | Ephemeris, star finder, and celestial navigation tool for the Pocket PC (Arm, Mips, SH3).
Features include:
. Rise, set, and meridian times for all solar system bodies.
. Lunar Phase calendar and animation showing the relative positions of the earth, moon, and sun.
. Images and physical data for planets, moon and sun. Optional display of all 110 Messier objects through separate free download.
. Calculators for Great Circle Distances, Range and Bearing, Horizon Distances, Julian Day, and degree minute seconds conversions.
. Reduction from sextant altitude to observed altitude for any of the 9110 stars, nine planets, and sun and moon.
Planet ephemeris data from Jet Propulsion Laboratory using the DE405 database.
. User interface optimized for simple and fast star, planet, Messier, and Caldwell object identification. Single click on any body to get the name, designation, calculated altitude, azimuth, and magnitude. Drag the cursor to scroll the chart. Zoom in and out with a single click.
. Display of orbital paths for inner solar system bodies showing daily positions for one year centered on current date.
. Animation of the sky in increments of hours, days, weeks, or months.
. Manual or automatic control of star magnitudes. Simple control over which objects to display.
. Black, white, and red star chart colors for normal, bright, and night viewing conditions, respectively.
. Chart can be rotated to any of the 16 compass points and also flipped along the North - South axis. This allows the either overhead (East and West reversed) or non-overhead (East and West normal) viewing.

| Ephemeris | | Description: | Ephemeris is a program that lets you enter a date and a location and then computes the time and azimuth (compass bearing) or sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset. In addition, it displays a schematic representation of the phase of the moon and its % illumination. It can also generate a table listing the positions of the sun and moon in the sky and the length of shadows cast by the sun at 15 minute intervals for a given day. In Calendar mode, it can display the phases of the moon for any given month. Finally there is Compass mode -- just point your pocket PC at the sun or moon and it tells you which way is north. | | | Version: | 1.0 | | Filesize: | 0 bytes | | Added on: | 11-Dec-2003 | | Downloads: | 565 | | Rating: | 5.0 (1 Vote) | | Category: | Pocket PC | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
| DOF | | Description: | DOF is a program for photographers that computes the depth of field for a lens given its focal length, f stop, focus distance and the desired resolution at the film plane. It reports the near and far focus limits as well as the hyperfocal distance. | | | Version: | 1.0 | | Filesize: | 0 bytes | | Added on: | 11-Dec-2003 | | Downloads: | 287 | | Category: | Pocket PC | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | |
| Expose | | Description: | Expose is an automated exposure guide for photographers that computes recommended exposures given film speed, filter being used, type of film, and scene illumination level. It can operate in either aperture or shutter priority mode and it incorporates a knowledge of the proper exposure for many different lighting situations, including corrections for filters and film reciprocity failure. The filter, film and scene databases are customizable. | | | Version: | 1.0 | | Filesize: | 0 bytes | | Added on: | 11-Dec-2003 | | Downloads: | 352 | | Rating: | 7.0 (1 Vote) | | Category: | Pocket PC | | Homepage | Rate resource | Details | Comments (1) | |
| Riseset v1.1 | | Description: | The Riseset Application displays information about the rise, transit and set times (among other data) for the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Any date and user location may be specified.
Riseset has good accuracy for visual sighting. The actual sun times should be within a few seconds of the time shown. The moon and planets times are given to the second, but the actual time could be ± a minute.
The program also gives:
- The altitude and azimuth angles at the current time, or at a user specified time.
- A compass drawing showing the azimuth and altitude angles.
- Optional magnetic compass correction for azimuth angles.
- The right ascension and declination of each of the celestial bodies.
- For the Sun -- the length of the day, time of the civil, nautical, and astronomical twilight.
- The current percent visibility of the Moon.
- The date and time of the next Moon phase.
- Lunar or solar eclipse information a few days in advance of the event.
