The programs run the same as if they were installed locally
but they actually execute on the Hera servers.

The input data files are transparently uploaded to the Hera servers where the
program is executed, and any output
FITS files and text output are transparently copied back to your machine after the
program finishes.
-
Hera tasks may be executed from the command line or using the special GUI built
into Fv.

For professional researchers, Hera provides
the complete suite of data analysis programs from the
