tool for synthesis imaging


Description
imager is an tool that accomplishes synthesis processing. A imager must be constructed for each MeasurementSet for which one wishes to do processing. Multiple copies of imager may be made at any time (provide they are given different names).

Constructors
imager Construct an imager tool
Functions
advise Advise (and optionally use) parameter values
approximatepsf Calculate approximate point spread functions
boxmask Construct a mask image from blc, trc
clean Calculate a deconvolved image with selected clean algorithm
clipimage Zero all pixels where Stokes I is below a threshold
clipvis Flag visibilities where residual exceeds a threshold
close Close the imager tool, with data written on disk, keeping imager process running for future use
