log_id¶

Return the string log ID for the info.

The log ID is used to extract certain information from table data.

Returns:

str

subarrays = 0¶

Methods Documentation

apply_configuration()[source]¶

Update detector array information with FITS header information.

Updates the detector information by taking the following keywords from the FITS header:

DETECTOR - The name of the detector (str)
DETSIZE - The size of the detector (str)
PIXSCAL - The pixel size on the sky (arcsec)
SUBARRNO - The number of subarrays (int)
SIBS_X - The position of the boresight in the x-direction (pixels)
SIBS_Y - The position of the boresight in the y-direction (pixels)
CTYPE1/CTYPE2 - If both are present, determines the grid (str)

Returns:

None

edit_header(header)[source]¶

Edit an image header with available information.

Parameters:

headerastropy.fits.Header: The FITS header to apply.

Returns:

None

get_table_entry(name)[source]¶

Given a name, return the parameter stored in the information object.

Note that names do not exactly match to attribute names.
