Yandasoft is a suite of applications and software developed by CSIRO for the calibration and imaging of Interferometric Radio Telescope data.
This is a Gitflow repo and you should install the gitflow extensions to get the best milage. Gitflow affords a stricter release policy that other workflows and, as this package is used to build official versions of ASKAP software, it is important that this process is reliable and repeatable and so this package is a controlled dependency.
In accordance with Gitflow workflow:
tags/<ver> or the head of masterdeveloprelease branches and then canonised to mastermasterA git submodule for the full calibration and imaging documentation is included
in the docs sibdirectory. On an initial clone of this repository you have to
run, git submodule init and git submodule update to obtain the latest
versions. Also you must have the sphinx document tool installed and run make html to generate the documentation.
This release of the software is the first and consequently beta release. It contains the (at least) the following applications:
csimulator: simulation of visibilities. ccontsubtract: continuum subtraction.mslist: measurement set interogation.msconcat: concatenation of measurement sets.msmerge: merging of measurement sets. cbpcalibrator: bandpass calibrator.ccalibrator: for performing gain calibration ccalapply: for the application of calibration solutions. cimager: Original ASKAP imager.imager: New imager - permits more parallisation options.linmos: Linear mosaicking of imagesmsplit: Manipulate measurement setscmodel: Generate model images from component listsselavy: Source detection toolsThese tasks were originally developed to form the real-time calibration and imaging pipeline for the ASKAP telescope. In order to distribute this software more widely we have extracted these tools from the main codebase of the telescope system and distributed it separately.
The dependencies are listed in detail in the INSTALL.txt file. But it should be noted that there are internal "ASKAP" dependencies that are required. They are all public and are automatically pulled from their respective repositories by the included build_all.sh script.
Yadasoft and its required ASKAP dependencies are available from the CSIRO bitbucket server at:
