NAME


mCatMap - Point-source imaging program

SYNOPSIS


mCatMap [-c column] [-m refmag] [-d level] [-w size] in.tbl out.fits hdr.template

DESCRIPTION


mCatMap is a point-source imaging program. The user defines a general output FITS image,
and its pixels are populated from a table of point sources. The source fluxes (or just
source counts) from the table are added into the appropriate pixel to create an output
image.

OPTIONS


-c column
Name of the table column that contains flux levels. If not specified, pixels will
be populated with source counts rather than summed flux values.

-m refmag
Set a reference magnitude to use when calculating fluxes.

-d level
Turn on debugging to the specified level (1-3)

-w size
Set a spread size for point sources (default is to use no spread). Allowed values
are 3 or 5.

ARGUMENTS


in.tbl Input table of source metadata.

out.fits
Path of output FITS file.

hdr.template
ASCII header template defining output FITS file.

RESULT


[struct stat="OK", time=seconds]

MESSAGES


OK [struct stat="OK", time=seconds]

EXAMPLES


To create an image showing the 2MASS point source fluxes (2mass_pt.tbl) in a 2 square
degree area defined by 2mass_pt.hdr:

mCatMap -c flux 2mass_pt.tbl 2mass_pt.fits 2mass_pt.hdr
[struct stat="OK", time=4]
