Hello astrocolleagues,

is long that I have written here a contribution.
I was occupied some time with the development of a special project that is also interesting for (amateur) astronomy.
It concerns a searching machine, but not in the kind like everybody knows (Google and co). Searching machine "ARTEMIS" is a searching machine basing on vectors and is constructed to search for objects within pictures!.:eyepop:

Actually , "ARTEMIS" contains 2 vectorized astronomical picture databases.
The "SkyMTO-Starcat" which contains admissions of my personal sky survey (northern sky).
The "SkyWEB-Starcat" is an open public database where everybody can integrate his
own pictures of the northern oder southern sky (if he/she likes) to make them searchable.

For more information there exists a bilingual homepage (in German / in English)
"ARTEMIS" Homepage (http://vsu.dyndns.org)

Furthermore a (German-speaking) article exists in a German astronomy forum.
German Diskussion about "ARTEMIS" (http://forum.astronomie.de/phpapps/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/421913#Post421913)

I hope this is of interest for you ;)
