The software presented on this page has been
created and contributed by Spitzer observers. It is listed
in reverse chronological order, corresponding to when we
received the software or resource submission.
CAVEAT: These tools have not necessarily been developed or tested
by the SSC, and are therefore not necessarily supported by the
SSC. The email address of the contributor is supplied if s/he wishes to
provide support, and s/he should be contacted directly.
Any contributed software products may not be compatible with our Post-BCD software, especially those that alter

| A large grid of model YSO SEDs |
The website includes a browser to search for model SEDs of YSOs at a variety
of evolutionary stages for a large range of parameters, and ASCII files
with convolved fluxes and magnitudes (including IRAC and MIPS) for all of the
models.
Also available is a tool which allows users to enter photometry
(e.g. IRAC and MIPS photometry, or points from an IRS spectrum) and search for
all of the models in the grid which provide a good fit. |

| ZODIPIC |
Synthesizes images of debris disks based on the Kelsall et al. 1998
model of the COBE DIRBE infrared background using an adaptive-mesh type
algorithm. As a default, ZODIPIC creates an image of the solar zodiacal
cloud as seen from 10 pc, but it contains many parameters that are
tweakable from the command line, making it a handy general-purpose model
for optically-thin debris disks that yields both accurate images and
photometric information simultaneously. The latest version can compute
images as seen through a linear polarizer.
