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.
