India-made image data processing tech aids unravel cosmic secrets

The Automated Radio Telescope Image Processing Pipeline (ARTIP), developed by global technology consultancy firm Thoughtworks, has aided in significant discoveries made by the MeerKAT Telescope in South Africa. ARTIP has processed over 1PB of MeerKAT data, leading to the detection of the hydroxyl radical and the identification of huge hydrogen atoms in distant galaxies. The pipeline is highly configurable and can be used on data generated by other telescopes as well.
