This paper describes the facilities available at the ESO headquarters in Munich for scanning photographic plates and for extracting information from these plates. ESO has an integrated system of three microdensitometers, a PDS 1010A, an Optronics S3000 and a Grant 800. Data analysis facilities include an HP 1000 series computer supporting an interactive data analysis system and two Vax 11/780 computers supporting general purpose computing and data analysis. Application areas currently active are: techniques for identifying objects in images and for classifying these objects, methods of analyzing extended images, and a package to reduce echelle spectra.
