scanning strategy #36

Closed Bonnarel closed 4 months ago

Bonnarel commented 9 months ago

Section 4.4 (September 28t) reads :

The scanning strategy adopted in an observation is described by the parameter sky_scan_mode. We note that it would be better to adopt one of the following solutions: either use scan_mode to include both spatial and frequency scanning modes, or leave sky_scan_mode for spatial scanning while a second parameter frequency_scan_mode should be added for frequency scanning strategy (see Sect.~\ref{subsec:sd}).

I think adding one single scan mode parameter is enough. This may require to allow sky/spectral terms combination . Semi column ?

solved with one scan_mode for both spatial and spectral in PR https://github.com/ivoa-std/ObsCoreExtensionForRadioData/pull/40
