Abstract
We present the development of tools for Echelle spectrograph of NYSC 1-m telescope. The eShel spectrograph(Shelyak) has operated at Deokheung Optical Astronomy Observatory since 2016. We carried out test observation in 2016 and completed the preprocessing and wavelength calibration of the spectroscopic data using IRAF. Based on the reduction process in IRAF, PySpecW, a set of tools for spectroscopic data was developed in 2017. PySpecW was optimized for NYSC 1m telescope, and written in Python for youth to use easily on any OS. PySpecW consists of preprocessing, aperture tracing, aperture extraction, wavelength calibration, and dispersion correction for extracted spectra.
