Abstract
We have developed a system to process raw IRAS Pointed Observation (PO ) data, using software developed at the Laboratory for Space Research, Groningen, The Netherlands. Several PO's can be coadded into one imag e. As an example we processed 99 PO's in the Chamaeleon I molecular cl oud into one image for every IRAS band. The list of extracted point so urces contains some 300 new IRAS sources, down to a flux level of 21 m Jy at 12 mum.
