NAME

       kmo_fit_profile  -  Fit  spectral  line profiles as well as spatial profiles with a simple function - for
       example to measure resolution or find the centre of a source

SYNOPSIS

       esorex kmo_fit_profile [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       This recipe creates either spectral or spatial profiles of sources using dif- ferent  functions  to  fit.
       Spectral  profiles  can  be  created  for  F1I  frames  (if WCS is defined in the input frame, the output
       parameters are in respect to the defined WCS).

       Spatial profiles can be created for F2I frames (any WCS information is ignored here).

       If the frames contain no noise information, constant noise is assumed for the fitting procedure.

   BASIC PARAMETERS
       --method F1I frames can be fitted using either ´gauss´, ´moffat´ or ´lorentz´ function.

       F2I frames can be fitted using either ´gauss´ or ´moffat´ function.

   ADVANCED PARAMETERS
       --range For F1I frames the spectral range can be defined. With available WCS informa- tion the range  can
       be provided in units (e.g. “1.2;1.5”), otherwise in pixels (e.g. “112;224).

       For F2I frames the spatial range can be defined as follow: “x1,x2;y1,y2”

OPTIONS

       --method <str>
              Either  fit "gauss", "moffat" or "lorentz" for 1D data.Either fit "gauss" or "moffat" for 2D data.
              (str; default: ´gauss´). The full name of  this  option  for  the  EsoRex  configuration  file  is
              kmos.kmo_fit_profile.method [default = gauss].

       --range <str>
              The  spectral  or  spatial  range  to  combine.  Default  is the whole range.  e.g. F1I: "0.5,2.1"
              (microns), e.g. F2I: "1,7;3,10" (pixels: x1,x2;y1,y2), pixels are counted from 1.  (str;  default:
              ´´).  The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_fit_profile.range
              [default = ].

       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.
