| Sumario: | The TOROS project (Transient Optical Robotic Observatory of the South) aims at searching for optical transient events associated to gravitational waves. The search and follow-up of such events require processing a large volume of imaging data. We automated the process by implementing a dedicated pipeline capable of analyzing the raw input images and producing the photometry for transient candidates. This pipeline is robust to data loss or connectivity interruptions during the candidate selection process. Here we present the model and implementation of the TOROS pipeline, the technologies involved in its development and future prospects. |
