simulator.predict - Function

2.4.1 Predict astronomical data from an image


Description

Predict astronomical data from an image. The (u,v) coordinates already exist, either from a MeasurementSet we have read in or by generating the MeasurementSet coordinates and empty data through create(). We simply predict onto these coordinates. NOTE: sm.predict assumes the model image units are Jy/pixel, and in fact will overwrite the brightness units of the image itself!
