NAME

       vmifucombine - Combine partial IFU field-of-views reconstructed by vmifuscience from different quadrants.

SYNOPSIS

       esorex vmifucombine [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       This recipe is used to compose into a single image the reconstructed images of the IFU field-of-view from
       different VIMOS quadrants.

       Such images are created by the recipes vmifuscience and vmifustandard.

       The input images must belong to different quadrants, so that they cannot be more than 4. The  images  are
       simply  summed  together: in fact, all field-of-view images are always 80x80 pixels, with only the sector
       corresponding to one quadrant having intensities that differ from zero.

       For more details, please refer to the VIMOS Pipeline User´s Guide.

OPTIONS

       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.
