Abstract:
The ISOPHOT Interactive Analysis (PIA), originally conceived as a tool
for ISOPHOT data processing to be used by calibration experts, rapidly
became the software of choice for scientific data reduction of ISOPHOT
observations. In this paper we summarize the enhancements of PIA in the
last year, and discuss in particular its capabilities for efficiently
reducing huge amounts of data in a ``pipeline'' modus, at the same
time keeping all interactive analysis possibilities present and active.
