As part of The University of Tennessee at Martin's University Scholars mentored research program, we have developed GUI-based, interactive software to aid in the processing of ground-based, near-infrared images. The software is coded in Perl and Tcl/Tk to maximize cross-platform compatibility. The software reduces the raw images to a final set of flat-fielded, sky-subtracted images, which are then input into PhotVis (Gutermuth et al. 2004) to extract the positions and photometric magnitudes of the sources. The final result is a band-merged catalog of sources ready for scientific analysis. Using near-infrared observations of molecular cloud cores obtained with the Magellan 6.5-meter Baade telescope at Las Campanas Observatory, we demonstrate the capability of this software.
