ctskymap
Generate sky map from event list(s).
Synopsis
This tool creates a sky map from either a single event list or event lists
provided in an observation definition file. The tool will loop over all event
lists that are provided and fill all events into a single sky map. Only events
within an energy interval spanned by emin and emax are considered.
ctskymap generates a FITS file comprising a sky map as primary extension.
General parameters
- inobs [file]
- Input event list or observation definition XML file.
- outmap [file]
- Output sky map file.
- emin [real]
- Minimum energy in map (in TeV).
- emax [real]
- Maximum energy in map (in TeV).
- (usepnt = no) [boolean]
- Use pointing instead of xref/yref parameters?
- nxpix [integer]
- Size of the Right Ascension / Galactic longitude axis (in pixels).
- nypix [integer]
- Size of the Declination / Galactic latitude axis (in pixels).
- binsz [real]
- Pixel size (in degrees/pixel).
- coordsys <CEL|GAL> [string]
- Coordinate system (CEL - celestial, GAL - galactic).
- xref [real]
- Right Ascension / Galactic longitude of image centre (J2000, in degrees).
- yref [real]
- Declination / Galactic latitude of image centre (J2000, in degrees).
- proj <AIT|AZP|CAR|MER|STG|TAN> [string]
- Projection method.
Standard parameters
- (publish = no) [boolean]
- Specifies whether the sky map should be published on VO Hub.
- (chatter = 2) [integer]
- Verbosity of the executable:
chatter = 0: no information will be logged
chatter = 1: only errors will be logged
chatter = 2: errors and actions will be logged
chatter = 3: report about the task execution
chatter = 4: detailed report about the task execution
- (clobber = yes) [boolean]
- Specifies whether an existing output sky map file should be overwritten.
- (debug = no) [boolean]
- Enables debug mode. In debug mode the executable will dump any log file output to the console.
- (mode = ql) [string]
- Mode of automatic parameters (default is “ql”, i.e. “query and learn”).
- (logfile = ctskymap.log) [string]
- Name of log file.
