FTP Access

AIPS is covered by the Free Software Foundation's General Public License and can be freely redistributed with certain conditions. Read the License (via the previous link) for the details.

For ftp access, just go to ftp.aoc.nrao.edu in the /pub/software/aips/ directory and get the README file.

It is also posible to obtain AIPS on the following media (all tape media are uncompressed):

(We do have a DLT 7000 drive, but you must provide the media if you want AIPS in this format).

While there is currently no charge for these, we request that only serious potential users of AIPS request a CDROM or tape in order to keep our costs down. NRAO reserves the right to impose a handling fee without any prior notice. Contact us at aipsmail@nrao.edu or submit an order form if you really need AIPS on tape.
