SYNOPSIS

esorex kmo_noise_map [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

The noise in each pixel of the input data is estimated using gain and readnoise.

The readnoise is expected to be in the primary header (ESO DET CHIP RON), the gain (ESO DET CHIP GAIN) has to be in each of the subsequent headers of each detector frame. The output is the initial noise map of the data frame.

  Input files:
   DO                    KMOS

An overview over the existing ESO pipelines can be found on the web page http://www.eso.org/sci/software/pipelines/.

Basic documentation about the EsoRex program can be found at the esorex (1) man page.

It is possible to call the pipelines from python using the python-cpl package. See http://packages.python.org/python-cpl/index.html for further information.
