Can synphot/stsynphot tutorials be added here? #126

Open pllim opened 4 years ago

pllim commented 4 years ago

@eteq , there is a need to add new tutorials for synphot and stsynphot in notebook form. Is this repo a good place for such things? The examples should not be computationally intensive but some do need data from http://www.stsci.edu/hst/instrumentation/reference-data-for-calibration-and-tools . Please advise. Thank you!

My short answer is: yes!

The longer answer is: synphot tutorials (as opposed to stsynphot) might be general enough to be better-placed in the astropy tutorials. If it's using HST data it probably makes sense here, but if it's something that's sort of a nebulous middle ground about using synphot on general datasets it's worth considering it for the astropy tutorials (since synphot is an affiliated package). But it's hard to decide on that for sure without seeing what the specific notebook is about. But for an easy rule-of-thumb, "if it uses ST data, it makes sense to go in this repo."

Probably mission specific. See https://innerspace.stsci.edu/pages/viewpage.action?spaceKey=msystems&title=Develop+Notebooks+with+Synphot+Functionality
