NAME

       mArchiveGet - Retrieve a single FITS image from a remote archive

SYNOPSIS

       mArchiveGet [-d] [-r] remoteref localfile

DESCRIPTION

       Retrieve  a  single  FITS  image  from  a remote archive, using a basic URL GET but with a
       structured output.

OPTIONS

       -d     Print additional debugging information.

       -r     "Raw" mode - use a raw HTTP GET (no "HTTP/1.1" etc in the  header);  necessary  for
              communication with some servers.

ARGUMENTS

       remoteref
              URL  of  remote  FITS file to retrieve (should be in quotes).  See mArchiveList for
              more information.

       localfile
              Full path/filename of the retrieved file.

RESULT

       [struct stat="OK", count="bytes"]

       If remoteref points to a g-zipped 2MASS QuickLook image, the image will be unzipped during
       transfer.

MESSAGES

       OK     [struct stat="OK", count="bytes"]

       ERROR  Output file (localfile) open failed

       ERROR  Invalid URL string (must start 'http://')

       ERROR  No data reference given in URL

       ERROR  Illegal port number in URL

       ERROR  Illegal return from select()

       ERROR  Connection timed out

EXAMPLES

       $        mArchiveGet        "http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/FileDownload/       nph-
       download?raw=1&ref=/ti08/971024n/s009/ image/j10090244.fits.gz" j10090244.fits
              [struct stat="OK", count="2111040"]

BUGS

       The drizzle algorithm has been implemented but has not been tested in this release.

       If a header template contains  carriage  returns  (i.e.,  created/modified  on  a  Windows
       machine),  the cfitsio library will be unable to read it properly, resulting in the error:
       [struct stat="ERROR", status=207, msg="illegal character in keyword"]

       It is best for the background correction algorithms if the area described  in  the  header
       template  completely encloses all of the input images in their entirety. If parts of input
       images are "chopped off" by  the  header  template,  the  background  correction  will  be
       affected.  We  recommend  you  use  an expanded header for the reprojection and background
       modeling steps, returning to the originally desired header size for the final  coaddition.
       The default background matching assumes that there are no non-linear background variations
       in the individual images (and therefore in the  overlap  differences).  If  there  is  any
       uncertainty  in  this  regard, it is safer to turn on the "level only" background matching
       (the "-l" flag in mBgModel.
