The GMRT Archival Data Processing Project

The GMRT Online Archive houses over 80 terabytes of interferometric observations obtained with the GMRT, since the first public observing cycle in 2002. The utility of this vast archive of raw UV visibilities, likely the largest of any Indian telescope, can be significantly enhanced if first look (and where possible, science ready) processed images can be made available to the user community. We have initiated a project to pipeline process GMRT images in the 150, 240, 325 and 610 MHz bands. The SPAM pipeline developed by Huib Intema is being used for this purpose.
