What the app does
Combines livestream polling, LSST Data Transfer loading, object-class filtering, magnitude limits, raw column selection, preview images and sky-chart exploration.
Silent setup
For unattended installation, download FinkAsteroidMonitorSetup.exe and FinkAsteroidMonitorSilentInstall.cmd into the same folder, then run the CMD file as administrator. It starts the signed setup with /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART /SP- and writes a log to %TEMP%\FinkAsteroidMonitorSetup.log.
