are a set of ftools-like executables needed for the scientific analysis
of Cherenkov Telescope Array data. ctools is also a Python module
that allows for interactive data analysis and building of analysis
scripts and pipelines. ctools includes also an observation simulator
to enable the scientific simulation of future CTA observations.</p>
<br>
<p style="padding-top: 0pt; text-align: left;" class="Body">ctools
are based on <a href="http://gammalib.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">GammaLib</a>, a versatile toolbox for
the high-level analysis of astronomical gamma-ray data. Besides CTA,
GammaLib supports also the analysis of Fermi-LAT data, and extensions
to support further gamma-ray instruments are planned. This enables a
simultaneous and coherent multi-instrument analysis of high-energy
sources in the Universe.</p>
