Basic Information on deproject
Task: deproject
Purpose: Deproject an image
Categories: map analysis
Given the center, major axis, and inclination of a galaxy,
create a deprojected image. Two optional parameters are provided
to allow for the output image's size and the galaxy's central
coordinate to be fixed.
Caveat: image needs to have square pixels
Key: in
Input data cube. No default.
Key: out
Output data cube. No default.
Key: center
Center of the polar coordinate system, in pixels where
(1,1) is the lower left point in a map.
By default the mapcenter will be taken.
Key: pa
major axis position angle (degrees)
Key: inc
inclination to be deprojected (degrees)
Key: osize
Optional forced output size in X and Y. By default
size is choosen from ...
Key: ocenter
Optional output position for galaxy center. By default
the output center is the same as the input center
Key: iflux
flag to attempt some manner of flux conversion
[Integer: 0 = Don't bother (default)
1 = Sure why not ]
Key: invert
flag to invert the deprojection transformation
(i.e. project image)
[Integer: 0 >= Deproject image (default)
-1 = inverse transfomation (project image)]
