Target Scheduler

Future Development

Scoring Engine Rules

The following new rules for the Scoring Engine are under consideration:

  • Minimum Imaging Time: assign a higher priority to those targets that have less imaging time available. For example, if you have a target that only rises high enough for a short time each year, it would score higher since it would have less availability. (Overlaps with existing Setting Soonest rule).

General/Other

  • Support for planning based on weather station data like humidity and sky quality.
  • Add a custom view panel for Target Scheduler activity that can be added to the main NINA Imaging tab.
  • Support target types other than DSOs - comets for example.
  • Ability to load targets in real time from NASA’s GCN or similar alert networks and then interrupt imaging to switch to a high priority target.
