KStars

Company Overview

KStars is a Desktop Planetarium for KDE.

Is there a utility that will read my FITS files and map the image size and locations on a sky map?

KStars can do this. It can either use the World Coordinate System data from the FITS file or plate-solve to derive the location from the image data.
