VisualizingKepler exoplanet data with pyqtgraph. This is a work in progress.
End goal is to provide something interactive and informative for Kepler data, similar to the Exoplanet Archive but with a more interactive UI for zooming, browsing, and exploring.
Planets are shown on tabs, there is also a Python console tab with common python libraries imported to work on matrix/astro data.
The upper left box shows all lightcurves for the planet, the lower left box is the zoomed in transparent blue region on the upper left box. The upper right box is a Lomb Scargle periodogram of the blue region. Scrolling through the lower left zoomed in light curve, will show the target pixel file for the (nearest) data point at that point in time.
This requires a pretty beefy machine, a quad-core i7 with 16GB of ram still chugs pretty hard on a single star with a lot of light curves. My chromebook can't render more than a dozen or so light curves at once.
TODO:
- Better inputs to control how many curves, from which quarters,
etc.
- All the labels.
- Background rendering for a lot of the plot data.
- Subsampling? pyqtgraph's doesn't seem to help.
