NAME

       visir_util_undistort - Correct the distortion in spectral data

SYNOPSIS

       esorex visir_util_undistort [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       The    files    listed    in    the   Set   Of   Frames   (sof-file)   must   be   tagged:
       VISIR-chopnod-corrected-file.fits CHOPNOD_CORRECTED Optionally, a bad  pixel  map  may  be
       provided: VISIR-bpm-file.fits STATIC_MASK

       The  product(s) will have a FITS card ´HIERARCH ESO PRO CATG´ with a value of: UNDISTORTED
       The recipe default values for the transformation are only valid for spectral data taken in
       Low resolution mode

OPTIONS

       --bkgcorrect <bool>
              Cho-nod  correct  the  data (bool; default: True). The full name of this option for
              the EsoRex configuration file is visir.visir_util_undistort.bkgcorrect  [default  =
              True].

       --xl <long>
              Coordinate  in  spatial direction. Together with yl it defines the lower point of a
              rectangle containing only  skylines  for  the  wavelength  shift  detection  (long;
              default:  117).  The  full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is
              visir.visir_util_undistort.xl [default = 117].

       --yl <long>
              Coordinate in wavelength direction. See xl (long; default: 110). The full  name  of
              this  option  for  the  EsoRex  configuration file is visir.visir_util_undistort.yl
              [default = 110].

       --xh <long>
              Coordinate in spatial direction. Together with yl it defines the higher point of  a
              rectangle  containing  only  skylines  for  the  wavelength  shift detection (long;
              default: 125). The full name of this option for the EsoRex  configuration  file  is
              visir.visir_util_undistort.xh [default = 125].

       --yh <long>
              Coordinate  in  wavelength direction. See xh (long; default: 150). The full name of
              this option for the  EsoRex  configuration  file  is  visir.visir_util_undistort.yh
              [default = 150].

       --slit_skew <float>
              Distortion  correction:  Skew of slit (degrees) (clockwise) (float; default: 0.52).
              The  full  name  of  this   option   for   the   EsoRex   configuration   file   is
              visir.visir_util_undistort.phi [default = 0.52].

       --spectrum_skew <float>
              Distortion  correction:  LMR  Skew  of spectrum (degrees) (counter- clockwise). Not
              used in High Resolution (float; default: 1.73). The full name of  this  option  for
              the EsoRex configuration file is visir.visir_util_undistort.ksi [default = 1.73].

       --vert_arc <float>
              Distortion  correction: LR Detector vertical curvature (pixel). Reduced by a factor
              4 in MR. Not used in HR A-side. Increased by a factor 115/52 in HR  B-side  (float;
              default:  -0.8).  The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is
              visir.visir_util_undistort.eps [default = -0.8].

       --hori_arc <float>
              Distortion correction: LMR Detector horizontal curvature (pixel).  Increased  by  a
              factor  1.5 in HR A-side. Reduced by a factor 2 in HR B-side (float; default: 0.0).
              The  full  name  of  this   option   for   the   EsoRex   configuration   file   is
              visir.visir_util_undistort.delta [default = 0.0].

       Note  that  it  is possible to create a configuration file containing these options, along
       with suitable default values. Please refer to the details provided by the 'esorex  --help'
       command.
