The optimization is performed through estimating synthetic interferometric observables (visibilities) as well as through fitting theoretical models on these quantities. The fitting process takes into account the measurement errors of the interferometric signal.</span>+ASPRO-VLTI provides tools to determine the optimal VLTI configuration and interferometric calibrators to achieve the user's astrophysical goals.
