<h3>FEATURES</h3>
<h2 class="section-title">CARTA key features</h2>
<p>CARTA adopts a client-server
architecture which is suitable for visualizing images with large file
sizes (GB to TB) easily obtained from ALMA, VLA, or SKA pathfinder
observations. It is impractical to process such a huge file
with a personal computer or laptop. In a client-server architecture,
computation and data storage are handled by remote enterprise-class servers
or clusters with high performance storage, while processed products are
sent to clients only for visualization with modern web features, such
as GPU-accelerated rendering. This architecture also enables users to
interact with the ALMA and VLA science archives by using CARTA as an interface.<br><br>
CARTA has two flavors: Desktop version and Server version. The former is suitable
for single-user usage with a laptop, a desktop, or a remote server in the "remote"
execution mode.
The later is suitable for institution-wide deployment to support multiple users with
user authentication and addtional server-side features.

<p>If you do not already have it, you may install Homebrew using the
following command (root access is required):<br>
<code>/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"</code><br>
If you have previously installed CARTA via Homebrew, we recommend
unlinking it first with:<br>
<code>brew unlink carta</code><br>
<p>Now CARTA can be installed with:<br>
<code>brew install cartavis/tap/carta-beta</code>
<p>To start CARTA, please refer to the user manual <a

download, extract, and run it.

platforms, but we have separate versions for x86_64 and aarch64
architectures.

<p>CARTA is available in the form of a Docker container from <a
href="https://hub.docker.com/r/cartavis/carta/" target="_blank">Docker Hub</a>.
This version could be useful to run CARTA on unsupported platforms such as macOS
10.14.</p>
With <a href="https://www.docker.com/" target="_blank"> Docker</a> installed and running
on your system, simply enter the following command in your terminal:<br>
<code>docker run --rm -ti -p 3002:3002 -v $PWD:/images -v $HOME/.carta-beta:/home/cartauser/.carta-beta cartavis/carta:beta</code><br>
It will download the v5.0.0-beta.1 version of CARTA from Docker Hub and run it using
your current directory (<code>$PWD</code>) in the CARTA file-browser. You may replace
<code>$PWD</code> by the path where your images reside. A unique URL will
be displayed in the terminal.
Copy & Paste the unique URL into your local web browser in order to access the CARTA
frontend interface.
