Description:
This
routine calculates a bolometer responsivity image from a stored flatfield solution. To calculate a new
flatfield solution, use the CALCFLAT command on a FLATFIELD observation.
Parameters:
IN =
NDF (Read)
Input files to be processed. Each input file is processed independently so will work
with all observation files including dark observations and a combination of sub-arrays.
MSG_FILTER = _CHAR (Read)
Control the verbosity of the application. Values can be
NONE (no messages), QUIET (minimal messages), NORMAL, VERBOSE, DEBUG or ALL.
[NORMAL]
NGOOD() = _INTEGER (Write)
Number of bolometers with good responsivities.
Integer array, one entry for each input file.
RESIST = GROUP (Read)
A group expression
containing the resistor settings for each bolometer. Usually specified as a text file using "
" syntax. An
example can be found in $STARLINK_DIR/share/smurf/resist.cfg [$STARLINK_DIR/share/smurf/resist.cfg]
OUT = NDF (Write)
Output responsivity images. If the input files were each taken with the same
stored FLATFIELD solution the output responsivity images will be identical.
Notes:
-
Works on all raw data files. The responsivity image will be identical for all files in a single observation
since it is only updated following a FLATFIELD observation.
-
Provenance is not propagated to the output files, since the output files do not depend on the
bolometer data.
-
The responsivity data are filtered using a signal-to-noise ratio of 5.0. The number of bolometers
passing this criterion is reported in the NGOOD parameter. The variance is stored in the output files
so additional filtering is possible.
-
For TABLE flatfields the CALCFLAT calculation of responsivity can use the variance of each
measurement to calculate a weighted fit. The data files themselves do not store the variance in the
flatfield solution so the answer from CALCRESP may differ slightly to the answer calculated with
CALCFLAT.
