NAME
kmo_copy - Copy a section of a cube to another cube, image or spectrum
SYNOPSIS
esorex kmo_copy [OPTIONS] FILE.sof
DESCRIPTION
With this recipe a specified region of an IFU-based cube (F3I), image (F2I) or vector
(F1I) can be copied to a new FITS file. One can copy just a plane out of a cube (any
orientation) or a vector out of an image etc. By default the operation applies to all
IFUs. The input data can contain noise frames which is then copied in the same manner as
the input data.
It is also possible to extract a specific IFU out of a KMOS FITS structure with 24 IFU
extensions or 48 extensions if noise is present.
BASIC PARAMETERS
--ifu Use this parameter to apply the operation to a specific IFU.
--x --y --z These are the start values in each dimension. The first pixel is adressed with
1.
--xsize --ysize --zsize These are the extents in each dimension to copy.
--autocrop If set to TRUE all borders containing NaN values are cropped. Vectors will be
shortened, images and cubes can get smaller. In This special case following parameters can
be omitted: --x, --y, --z, --xsize, --ysize and --zsize.
Examples: --------- extract a cube-section of a cube: esorex kmo_copy --x=3 --y=2 --z=1
--xsize=2 --ysize=3 --zsize=6 copy.sof
extract plane: esorex kmo_copy --x=3 --y=2 --z=1 --xsize=2 --ysize=3 copy.sof
extract vector just of IFU 4: esorex kmo_copy --x=3 --y=2 --z=1 --ysize=3 --ifu=4 copy.sof
extract whole IFU 4: esorex kmo_copy --x=1 --y=1 --z=1 --xsize=<NAXIS1> --ysize=<NAXIS2>
--zsize=<NAXIS3> --ifu=4 copy.sof
extract scalar: esorex kmo_copy --x=3 --y=2 --z=1 copy.sof

OPTIONS
--ifu <long>
Specific IFU to process (long; default: -1). The full name of this option for the
EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.ifu [default = -1].
--autocrop <bool>
Crop automatically NaN values at borders (bool; default: False). The full name of
this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.autocrop [default =
False].
--x <long>
Start value in first dimension (pixels). (long; default: 1). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.x [default = 1].
--y <long>
Start value in second dimension (pixels). (long; default: 1). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.y [default = 1].
--z <long>
Start value in third dimension (pixels). (long; default: 1). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.z [default = 1].
--xsize <long>
Length in first dimension (pixels). (long; default: 1). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.xsize [default = 1].
--ysize <long>
Length in second dimension (pixels). (long; default: 1). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.ysize [default = 1].
--zsize <long>
Length in third dimension (pixels). (long; default: 1). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmo_copy.zsize [default = 1].
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.
