NAME

       hawki_step_detect_obj - (OBSOLETE) Object detection recipe

SYNOPSIS

       esorex hawki_step_detect_obj [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       (OBSOLETE) hawki_step_detect_obj -- hawki detect objects recipe.

       This  recipe  detects objects from the combined image creating a mask and a list of object
       properties The input of the recipe files listed in the Set Of Frames  (sof-file)  must  be
       tagged    as:    combined.fits    COMBINED    The    recipe    creates   as   an   output:
       hawki_step_detect_obj_mask.fits (OBJ_MASK): A mask with 1 where the  objects  are  present
       and  0  elsewhere  hawki_step_detect_obj_stars.fits (OBJ_PARAM): A table with the detected
       objects characteristics Return code: esorex exits with an error code of 0  if  the  recipe
       completes successfully or 1 otherwise

OPTIONS

       --median_smooth <int>
              box  size  for  a median smoothing of the image before the detection (int; default:
              3).  The  full  name  of  this  option  for  the  EsoRex  configuration   file   is
              hawki.hawki_step_detect_obj.median_smooth [default = 3].

       --detect_sigma <float>
              detection  level (float; default: 7.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex
              configuration file is hawki.hawki_step_detect_obj.detect_sigma [default = 7.0].

       --growing_radius <int>
              radius of convolution kernel to apply to objects (int; default: 5). The  full  name
              of     this     option     for     the     EsoRex     configuration     file     is
              hawki.hawki_step_detect_obj.growing_radius [default = 5].

       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.
