Both the autoconfigurable source archive and Linux RPM packages are available below. The RPM versions have been optimized to provide the best possible performance on Linux PCs. All versions (including the binaries) rely on the CDSclient package by F.Ochsenbein for querying astrometric reference catalogues. Make sure it is installed before running SCAMP.

Documentation
The SCAMP documentation is still incomplete (the photometric part is missing) but is reasonably up-to-date.
