Astropy is a community Python library for astronomy. We have developed Imagecube as an Astropy affiliated package for processing multiwavelength (spectro)-imaging. This module automates tedious steps of image processing and analysis and delivers a science-ready image datacube. The included steps involve converting to common flux units, image registration to a common WCS, and convolution to a common resolution. Individual steps can be performed separately. We will show examples of Imagecube in action and provide an update on its current status.
