Getting the analysis toolsΒΆ
We recommend that you use ctools to analyse the data from the first CTA Data Challenge.
The latest version of the software is ctools-1.5.0.
ctools-1.5.0 depends on gammalib-1.5.0.
You may either
install the software via conda, use a
pre-compiled binary package for Mac OS X, or
download and
compile the source code:
- Mac OS X binary package (Mac OS X 10.7+)
- GammaLib source code tarball
- ctools source code tarball
After downloading and installing, configure GammaLib and ctools as follows (not needed for a conda installation):
$ export GAMMALIB=/usr/local/gamma
$ source $GAMMALIB/bin/gammalib-init.sh
$ export CTOOLS=/usr/local/gamma
$ source $CTOOLS/bin/ctools-init.sh
Have a look at getting the ctools if you need more information about the installation and configuration process.
Note
You may consider adding the GAMMALIB and CTOOLS environment variables
as well as the sourcing of the configuration scripts to your .bashrc file
(or equivalent) so that your analysis environment
for the
first CTA Data Challenge
is always setup correctly.
