NAME

imcattools_photometry - imcattools_photometry tools section

DESCRIPTION

The tools in this section are provided to add detailed shape, size magnitude information to catalogues of objects detected with the object detection tools 'findpeaks' and 'hfindpeaks'.

COMMANDS

getfitsval - add values from a fits file to a catalogue
getshapes - calculate ellipticities etc. for catalogue of objects
getshapes1 - calculate ellipticities etc. for catalogue of objects
getshapes2 - calculate ellipticities etc. for catalogue of objects
getshapes3 - calculate ellipticities etc. for catalogue of objects
getsky - determine model for local sky background around objects
makedensity - bin catalogue into FITS image
makegausskernel - calculate the kernel for gaussian psf
makekernel - calculate the kernel for the polarizability
makepeff - compute effective polarisability
makepeff2 - compute effective polarisability
modelpsf - generate a 2D polynomial model for psf
profile - compute azimuthal average of a FITS file
