SpecZoo enhances spectral data processing and visualization in astronomy, suggesting improved efficiency in research and education.
Astronomical spectra, which encode rich astrophysical and chemical information, are fundamental to understanding celestial objects and universal laws. The advent of large-scale spectroscopic surveys, generating tens of millions of spectra, presents significant challenges for efficient data processing and analysis. To address these challenges, we develop an AI-powered platform (named “SpecZoo”) for spectral visualization and analysis. This platform integrates modern information technology and machine learning to lower the barrier to spectral data utilization and enhance research efficiency. Its core functionalities include interactive visualization, automated spectral classification, physical parameter measurement, spectral annotation, and multi-band/multi-modal data fusion, all supported by flexible user and data management systems. It has become an essential tool for the National Astronomical Data Center, directly supporting spectral data processing and research for major projects including LAMOST, SDSS, DESI, and so on. Furthermore, the platform demonstrates strong potential for science-education integration, providing a novel resource for cultivating talent in astronomy and data science.
