NAME

       hawki_step_detect_obj - Object detection recipe

SYNOPSIS

       esorex hawki_step_detect_obj [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       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

       --sigma_det <float>
              detection level (float; default: 6.0). The full name of this option for the  EsoRex  configuration
              file is hawki.hawki_step_detect_obj.sigma_det [default = 6.0].

       --growing_radius <long>
              radius  of convolution kernel to apply to objects (long; 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.
