Classes to manage Catalogs and WCS’s¶
This module provides the classes used to generate and manage source catalogs for each input chip. Those positions can be transformed to undistorted sky positions, written out to files, or plotted using various methods defined for these classes.

drizzlepac.catalogs.
generateCatalog
(wcs, mode='automatic', catalog=None, src_find_filters=None, **kwargs)[source]¶ Function which determines what type of catalog object needs to be instantiated based on what type of source selection algorithm the user specified.
Parameters: - wcs : obj
WCS object generated by STWCS or PyWCS
- catalog : str or ndarray
Filename of existing catalog or ndarray of image for generation of source catalog.
- kwargs : dict
Parameters needed to interpret source catalog from input catalog with
findmode
being required.
Returns: - catalog : obj
A Catalog-based class instance for keeping track of WCS and associated source catalog
-
class
drizzlepac.catalogs.
ImageCatalog
(wcs, catalog_source, src_find_filters=None, **kwargs)[source]¶ Bases:
drizzlepac.catalogs.Catalog
Class which generates a source catalog from an image using Python-based, daofind-like algorithms
Required input
kwargs
parameters:computesig, skysigma, threshold, peakmin, peakmax, hmin, conv_width, [roundlim, sharplim]
-
class
drizzlepac.catalogs.
UserCatalog
(wcs, catalog_source, **kwargs)[source]¶ Bases:
drizzlepac.catalogs.Catalog
Class to manage user-supplied catalogs as inputs.
Required input
kwargs
parameters:xyunits, xcol, ycol[, fluxcol, [idcol]]
-
COLNAMES
= ['xcol', 'ycol', 'fluxcol']¶
-
IN_UNITS
= None¶
-
generateXY
(**kwargs)[source]¶ Method to interpret input catalog file as columns of positions and fluxes.
-
-
class
drizzlepac.catalogs.
RefCatalog
(wcs, catalog_source, **kwargs)[source]¶ Bases:
drizzlepac.catalogs.UserCatalog
Class which manages a reference catalog.
Notes
A reference catalog is defined as a catalog of undistorted source positions given in RA/Dec which would be used as the master list for subsequent matching and fitting.
-
COLNAMES
= ['refxcol', 'refycol', 'rfluxcol']¶
-
IN_UNITS
= 'degrees'¶
-
PAR_NBRIGHT_PREFIX
= 'ref'¶
-
PAR_PREFIX
= 'r'¶
-
-
class
drizzlepac.catalogs.
Catalog
(wcs, catalog_source, **kwargs)[source]¶ Bases:
object
Base class for keeping track of a source catalog for an input WCS
Warning
This class should never be instantiated by itself, as necessary methods are not defined yet.
This class requires the input of a WCS and a source for the catalog, along with any arguments necessary for interpreting the catalog.
Parameters: - wcs : obj
Input WCS object generated using STWCS or HSTWCS
- catalog_source : str
Name of the file from which to read the catalog.
- kwargs : dict
Parameters for interpreting the catalog file or for performing the source extraction from the image. These will be set differently depending on the type of catalog being instantiated.
-
PAR_NBRIGHT_PREFIX
= ''¶
-
PAR_PREFIX
= ''¶
-
apply_exclusions
(exclusions)[source]¶ Trim sky catalog to remove any sources within regions specified by exclusions file.
-
apply_flux_limits
()[source]¶ Apply any user-specified limits on source selection Limits based on fluxes.
-
buildCatalogs
(exclusions=None, **kwargs)[source]¶ Primary interface to build catalogs based on user inputs.
-
generateXY
(**kwargs)[source]¶ Method to generate source catalog in XY positions Implemented by each subclass
-
plotXYCatalog
(**kwargs)[source]¶ Method which displays the original image and overlays the positions of the detected sources from this image’s catalog.
Plotting
kwargs
that can be provided are:vmin, vmax, cmap, markerDefault colormap is
