Abstract:
The ISOPHOT Interactive Analysis (PIA) is the software tool of choice for
the scientific analysis of ISOPHOT data. It is used in more than 200 astronomy
institutes all over the world and it has been continuously upgraded during
and after the operational phase of the ISO mission. Special enhancements
concerning the analysis of imaging spectrophotometry data as well as the
inclusion of a raster data simulation package within the PIA capabilities
are discussed here.
