Abstract

In this study, a brief overview of the telescopes located at the TÜBİTAK National Observatory (TUG) is provided. The NightAssistant (NA) software, developed as a user-friendly desktop application for controlling both the T100 telescope and observatory operations, is described. Additionally, the web-based platform named Occultation Portal (OP), running on TUG servers, is introduced for the purpose of announcing, collecting, and analyzing stellar occultation observations desired to be conducted by different projects from a shared platform.
