Hi Holly,
     I created a web page on CASA python scripts for SMA data handling and imaging: https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~jzhao/SMA-CASA/pythonCASA4SMA/casapython4sma.html

     I include both Glen and Ryan in this email since the bullet under the first subject - SWARM data quality analysis
is specially designed for the schedulers for data quality analysis.

     Please try either single entry script (https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~jzhao/SMA-CASA/pythonCASA4SMA/scripts/swarmDataAnalysis.py.html)
or multiple entry script (https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~jzhao/SMA-CASA/pythonCASA4SMA/scripts/swarmDataAnalysisMultientry.py.html) or both.

    Please report me any issues concerning the scripts, swarm2casa pipeline and data.

   You can circulate the link to a wide users' community. More users would be better to improve the swarm2casa pipeline.
   
    Regards,    Jun-Hui

    Hi Holly,
          I have been implementing and integrating calibration features into  SWARM2CASA.
    The implementation of  pipeline Tsys correction has been done; the error information from online error storage (we_read) has been
    interpreted into the pipeline; the flux-density scaling features (options) are on the way of being
    integrated into the pipeline. The VERSION on rtdc9 is SMA-SWARM2CASA 1.0.5TST,
    with the latest implementations were made on April 2, 2019. The intensity debugging has been
    taken place on both rtdc9 and my desktops. However, in the past two weeks, my desktop
    computers have collapsed a few times. As you may know, it consumes time  to recover the internal
    disks by running FSCK and make a diagnosis in finding the cause of the issues and fix them. It is
    quite frustrating! Thanks to John Test. It took him several hours yesterday to fix the issues on the virtual machine of
    my MacPro that I rely on to test the code as a general user before exporting my software to rtdc9.
          Please encourage the Cambridge users to use it and make feedback to us.
          The newly implemented pipeline calibration features have not been exported to Hawaii yet. We need
    to make test runs on rtdc9 for debugging concerns before delivering/implementing  the new software
    components to the Hawaii installation.
          Regards,
          Jun-Hui

        Hi Jun-Hui,
        what's the situation with SWARM2CASA? I've been distracted by archive features but its now time to revisit getting SMA data into CASA format. I dont know if you've had any chance to do more since 2018 but I'm just getting back up to speed.

        Cheers,
        Holly
