How does it work?

ALFAHOR is a package that allows you to easily handle spectral data in FITS file format. It has an interactive interface to create masks and define visually the near and far sides of channel map emission in protoplanetary disks. Further details on the method and implementation can be found in Paneque-Carreño et al. (2022, under review) and Pinte et al. 2018.
