SCUBA2_PHOTOM

Perform aperture photometry on SCUBA-2 images

Description:

Perform aperture photometry on SCUBA-2 images using the chosen method. There are three methods:

Use the Starlink AUTOPHOTOM package to perform aperture photometry using the given aperture and annulus dimensions (default). The default aperture radius is 30 arcsec.Calculate the sum within a given aperture, correcting for any DC offset by analyzing the image outside the aperture.As above, but estimate the background offset using an annulus (see the parameters ANNULUS_INNER and ANNULUS_OUTER below).The results are written to a log file called log.flux.

Notes:

Available Parameters :

The following parameters can be set via the -recpars option:
ANNULUS
Flag to denote whether to use an annulus for background estimation.
ANNULUS_INNER
Inner radius for annulus as a multiplier of the aperture radius.
ANNULUS_OUTER
Outer radius for annulus as a multiplier of the aperture radius.
APERTURE_RADIUS
Radius of aperture in arcsec for calculating total flux.
AUTOPHOTOM
Flag to denote whether to use the autophotom package for photometry.
REGISTER_DEC
Declination of position of aperture (DD:MM:SS format).
REGISTER_RA
Right ascension of position of aperture (HH:MM:SS format).
STATS_ESTIMATOR
Background estimator for aperture photometry. Default is median.
