rfitsio is a R wrapper to the CFITSIO library. It allows to read and write FITS files containing images and ASCII/binary tables.
Welcome to the homepage of the rfitsio library. rfitsio is a library which allows programs written in GNU R to read and write files in the FITS format.
The library is low-level, in the sense that it does not provide (yet) high-level functions. Almost every function provided by rfitsio maps one-to-one with functions in the CFITSIO library.
