get_image() #30

Closed hyissue closed 11 years ago

hyissue commented 11 years ago

Does the image retrieved using get_image() show the integrated emission to the observer at certain distance? Or just a slice at the specified distance. If it is a slice, how can I get the integrated emission? Thank you.

This will depend on how you set up the image. If you used the image depth functionality described here:

http://docs.hyperion-rt.org/en/latest/advanced/peeloff.html#image-depth

it will be the integrated emission between the two limits given. Otherwise it will be the total integrated emission along the line of sight.
