sd.calibrate - Function

5.1.1 High level function for calibration that calls appropriate calibration function depending on the data
Description

This method is a high level function for calibration. It calls appropriate calibration function depending on the origin of the data. It checks an calmode argument first, and then looks antenna name in the data. Calibration functions that can be called from the method are:

calnod if calmode is ’nod’
auto_quotient if calmode is ’quotient’
calps if calmode is ’ps’ and antenna name is ’GBT’
calfs if calmode is ’fs’ and antenna name is ’GBT’
apexcal if calmode is ’ps’ or ’fs’ and antenna name contains ’APEX’
almacal if calmode is ’ps’, ’fs’, or ’otf’ and antenna name contains ’ALMA’ or ’OSF’

Arguments


Inputs
scantab	input data as a scantable
	allowed:	scantable
	Default:
scannos	a list of scan numbers to be calibrated
	allowed:	(list of) integer, string
	Default:	[] (all data)
calmode	Calibration mode
	allowed:	string (’ps’, ’fs’, ’none’)
	Default:	’none’
verify	Verify calibration if True
	allowed:	bool
	Default:	False

Returns
scantable

Example

s=sd.scantable(’alma-scans.asap’,average=False,getpt=True)
scal=sd.calibrate(s,calmode=’ps’)
