FITS Storage · Imaging Logbook

Never lose a night again.
Cloud backup for your FITS/XIFS files and AI automated session management.

Upload raw FITS captures directly from NINA, SGP or APT. We parse every header, match your target against 20.000+ deep-sky objects, and link each frame to the right Project and Session — fully automatic, permanent, searchable, shareable.

Watch how raw FITS files from NINA, SGP or APT are turned into a fully organized cloud-based workflow — targets auto-detected, sessions and projects built automatically, progress tracked. Zero manual entry.

Why upload your FITS to AstrophotoMarket?

This is not "yet another Dropbox". It is astrophotography-aware storage that understands your data.

Permanent backup

A single failed drive, lost USB or reformatted NUC can wipe a season of data. Every byte is stored with triple redundancy across multiple independent data centres.

Automatic DSO matching

Our parser reads object name, RA/DEC from your FITS headers and matches your target against popular name, NGC, IC, Messier, Sharpless, vdB, Barnard and more — 20,000+ objects with fuzzy name lookup.

Automatic session & project linking

Each frame lands on the correct session in your Logbook and counts toward your project's integration progress — no manual tagging.

Smart project & session creation

Upload your FITS files and the AI mechanism automatically builds Projects and Sessions from your data. Export a full JSON manifest with 4-hour presigned URLs for every file — your data, your choice, any time.

Header-aware science

All key FITS keywords parsed: filter, exposure, gain, offset, sensor temperature, focuser position, guider RMS — ready to filter and graph in your Logbook.

Cross-batch duplicate detection

A SHA-256 fingerprint catches the same sub-frame uploaded twice. It is counted once, linked everywhere, and never charged against your quota twice.

Coming in the next phase

Private Logbook or collaborative team sessions

Keep your imaging sessions and projects entirely private, or open them up for collaboration — share data with your team, invite guest observers, and build joint multi-night projects together. You decide who sees what.

Workflow

Three steps from capture to cloud

No desktop client, no sync daemon, no vendor lock-in.

1

Drag and drop

Drop raw FITS files straight from NINA, SGP or APT into your browser. Multipart upload handles files well above 5 MB — no size limit beyond your plan quota.

2

We parse and match

A background worker reads every FITS header within 5 minutes, matches the target against our DSO catalogue, and links the frame to your session and project.

3

Browse, filter, download

Everything is searchable from your Storage dashboard. Download any file at any time, or export the full manifest whenever you want.

A logbook that keeps up with your data

From a drag-and-drop upload to a fully organised observation log — here is what the workflow actually looks like.

01 Upload

Drop your FITS, walk away

Drag raw files straight from NINA, SGP or APT into your browser. Multipart upload handles files up to 1 GB each, resumes through spotty connections, and tells you exactly which session, project and DSO every frame belongs to — before you even finish making coffee.

02 Organise

Every frame, every batch — one filterable list

Browse every FITS file you have ever uploaded — across every session — in a single searchable table. Filter by project, session, status or filename; see at a glance which frames are linked, which targets they hit, and which night they came from. Bulk actions for power users.

03 Analyse

Your nights in numbers

A proper imaging statistics dashboard. Total integration by filter, monthly imaging activity, your most-imaged target, your longest session — all generated automatically from the FITS headers of the files you have already uploaded. No spreadsheets, no manual tagging.

04 Project progress

Track every project automatically — no manual updates

Set an integration goal for a project, point your FITS files at it, and the progress bar fills itself. Total integration, per-filter goals (L/R/G/B), linked sessions and entries — all calculated live from your uploads. You chase clear skies; the logbook does the bookkeeping.

Frequently asked questions

Is my data safe?
Yes. Files are stored with triple redundancy across multiple independent data centres. Every upload is content-hashed and verified, so silent corruption is detected on the spot.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Cancel with one click — your files stay readable until the end of the billing period. After that, you can either downgrade to Free (if you are under 3 GB), export your files, or let them be removed.
What happens if I exceed my quota?
Nothing bad. New uploads are paused (write-freeze) but all existing files remain readable and downloadable. Upgrade or delete files to resume uploads.
Do you modify or compress my FITS?
No. Files are stored byte-for-byte, exactly as your camera wrote them. Downloads return the original file with the same SHA-256 checksum.
Can I download the originals?
Anytime. Download single files from the Storage dashboard, or export a full JSON manifest with time-limited presigned URLs for every file in one call.
I need more than 4 TB — what then?
Write us. For observatories, research teams and AP groups we offer custom quotas, dedicated buckets and a negotiated SLA.
