Run the suite of wcs codes on a SINGLE image.
For a less wordy run:
echo "Y" > AUTO.mode
% wcsf --help
Usage: wcsf ./local_red_0/FIXUP/20190217T122456.6_acm_sci.fits
arg1 - Name of file with list of FITS images (can be full path)
Additional options:
-v = print verbose comments
--help = view a help document
The codes that are run are:
wcsf_rough list.start $debug
wcsf_viscat list.start $debug
wcsf_imgcat list.start $debug
wcsf_final list.start $gui $debug
NOTE: You can preset parameters with a local WCSF.DEFAULTS file.
You can run the following to make a generic version of this file: % wcsf_defaults N
For more details and links see wcsf_.
Actaully, the internal codes (wcsf_*) are all set up to operate on lists of images, but after a lot of use I found that we often want to perform the full suite of reduction operations on a single image alone. This is the reason for this routine (wcsf). Note that in Feb2020 I undertook an overhaul of the wcsf_ routines so that they could use dssbase data sets if these are available. These data sets are collected in batch mode, stored in the ./local_red subdirectory, and are discussed in HERE.
To incorporate the dssbase capabilities and update some of the ds9 gui tools, I have been updating my wcsf_ codes.
Routines updated:
basic_fits_info
was not finding acm RA,DEC value correctly
wcsf
add -v ocommand line option
wcsf_rough
add -v ocommand line option
usno_identify
add -v ocommand line option
usno_look
add -v ocommand line option
*** Use dssbase_locate to identify and use existing DSS data
wcsf_viscat
No significant changes because this uses usno_look_wcs (see
below0 and this routine is already pretty fast.
usno_look_wcs
Because this code does not use the internet, but make a fast
query of the local USNO catalog, I do not change this code.
