8.3.6 Spectral Smoothing

Smoothing on data can be done as follows:

  scantable.smooth(kernel,    # type of smoothing: ’hanning’ (default), ’gaussian’, ’boxcar’  
          width,              # width in pixls (ignored for hanning); FWHM for gaussian.  
          insitu)             # if False (default), do smoothing in-situ; otherwise,  
                              # make new scantable  
 
  Example:  
  # spave is an averaged spectrum  
  spave.smooth(’boxcar’,5)    # do a 5 pixel boxcar smooth on the spectrum  
  sd.plotter.plot(spave)      # should see smoothed spectrum
