Description

The Joan Oró Telescope (TJO) is a robotic telescope located at the Montsec Observatory (OdM). It is the largest telescope in Catalonia (0.8-meter in diameter). It is equipped with two scientific instruments: an imaging camera with photometric filters (LAIA) and a medium resolution spectrograph (ARES). The IEEC has designed and developed the observatory control system that allows the TJO to operate in a fully robotic and unattended way, including the observation planner (ISROCS), the observation control and execution system (OpenROCS, OCS), and the quality control and results delivery process (ICAT).
