IRAF Programs

Script Name	Description	Needed tasks
autored.cl	Automatic calibration of images, for one night. Steps: Changeing the image name Convert images to IRAF or fits format Subtract Bias Correct by Flat Field invert images
autoredn.cl	Multi-night Automatic calibration of images. Steps: (see autored.cl)	autored.cl
autoast.cl Astrometry Page Autoast.cl & Intast.cl	Automatically find astrometric solution of an images, write WCS to the header and convert plate position to R.A., Dec (or vise versa), the program can converge even if the initial guess coordinates are in error larger then the field of view. Steps: find stars in each image	autoast.cl usno_cd.cl autodaofind.cl xyshift (foreign) project (foreign) match_list (foreign) scat - [LINUX bin] (foreign - WCSTools)
intast.cl Astrometry Page Autoast.cl & Intast.cl	Automatically find astrometric solution of an images, write WCS to the header and convert plate position to R.A., Dec (or vise versa), the program can converge even if the initial guess coordinates are has error, larger then the field of view! - Interactive version, click object to measure with mouse. In the current version the program can work with the USNO AA2.0 or USNO SA1.0/SA2.0 catalogue Steps: find stars in each image	intast.cl autoast.cl usno_cd.cl autodaofind.cl xyshift (foreign) project (foreign) match_list (foreign) find_zero (foreign) scat - [LINUX bin] (foreign - WCSTools)
simphot.cl Preliminary Version!	Measure all sources in image using several methods (aperture/daophot photometry). Steps: Find image parameter, maesure sources and list all the detected sources	loop_simphot.cl autodaofind.cl autodaophot.cl autoapphot.cl find_image_size.cl find_synon.cl rmboundrystars.cl autoast.cl usno_cd.cl xyshift.f (foreign) closest.f (foreign) match_list.f (foreign) project.f (foreign)
autodaofind.cl	Automatic star finding in an image, using daofind Steps: Find sky sigma Run daofind
autodaophot.cl	Automatic photometry of all the stars found in a image, using daofind/daophot Steps: call autodaofind select PSF stars (1/2 iterations) running daophot (1/2 iterations)	autodaofind.cl
autoaperphot.cl	Automatic photometry of all the stars found in a image, using daofind/daophot Steps: call autodaofind running phot	autodaofind.cl
find_image_size.cl	Find image size in pixels Steps: read the header for image size
autoalign.cl	Automatically aligned images, the program can converge even if the shift between the images is VERY large (~50%) Steps: find stars in each image call pgshift (Originaly written by Uri Givon) for find the shift between two lists. align images	autodaofind.cl xyshift (foreign)
usno_cd.cl	Find USNO A1.0/2.0 disk number. Steps:
fast_phot.cl Preliminary Version!	Fast/on-line aperture photometry. Steps:	FastPhot Home Page
ebv_extin.cl Preliminary Version!	Extract E(B-V) values from Schlegel, Finkbeiner & Davis (1998) Dust IR maps. Steps: read fits image and get value for each galactic coordinate in list	Retrieve the Schlegel et al. E(B-V) 40962 maps from: http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~schlegel/dust/data/data.html
