After more than four and a half years of successful operation aboard the Russian GRANAT space observatory, the French soft gamma-ray telescope SIGMA can be considered a milestone in the application of the coded mask aperture technique to high energy astronomy. The unprecedented imaging performance attained by SIGMA, coupled to the long observation time have yielded impressive results. Here I briefly describe the SIGMA imaging system and review the standard image reconstruction techniques and analysis procedures applied to the SIGMA data.
