Abstract
The Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope satellite (Insight-HXMT) is an X-ray astronomy satellite, and has accumulated a large data sets since its launch. As a bridge of hardware of payload and scientific results, the HXMT data analysis software plays an important role in obtaining scientific achievements. In this work, we introduce the software requirement, data processing and software architecture. The HXMT data analysis software has provided not only a series of tools to help users to do data analysis of HXMT, but also libraries, interfaces and algorithms for user to establish a coordinated data analysis. Thus, we hope this work can provide reference for the future designation and development of data analysis software of satellite. More importantly, the common libraries and architecture can be used to future satellite software.
