NAME

       hawki_util_gendist - Distortion map creation

SYNOPSIS

       esorex hawki_util_gendist [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       hawki_util_gendist -- HAWK-I distortion calibration file creation.

       The  4  files  (chip  1  2  3  4)  listed  in the Set Of Frames (sof-file) must be tagged:
       raw-file_chip1.txt  DIST_MAP  raw-file_chip2.txt  DIST_MAP   raw-file_chip3.txt   DIST_MAP
       raw-file_chip4.txt DIST_MAP

OPTIONS

       --dim_x <long>
              Dimension  of  distortion  image  in X (long; default: 2048). The full name of this
              option for the EsoRex configuration file is hawki.hawki_util_gendist.dim_x [default
              = 2048].

       --dim_y <long>
              Dimension  of  distortion  image  in Y (long; default: 2048). The full name of this
              option for the EsoRex configuration file is hawki.hawki_util_gendist.dim_y [default
              = 2048].

       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.
