NAME: addstar PURPOSE: (one line only) Add a reference star to the data base for fitting DESCRIPTION: This tool is really designed to be run on one visit at a time. It locates all the Gaia reference stars in the image and posts them to the database for subsequent fitting. What's saved at this step is basically the starting point for fitting. This program can be a bit interactive and is pretty fast. The fitting can be slow and is left for the next step. CATEGORY: Astrometry CALLING SEQUENCE: hstaddstar,filestem,det INPUTS: filestem - String that is used to select a set of file for processing. The search string for files will be filestem+'*.flc.fits.gz' visitid - Two character string for the visit id det - Detector number (1 or 2) pattstep - integer that picks out the image in the sequence for that visit OPTIONAL INPUT PARAMETERS: KEYWORD INPUT PARAMETERS: BOXMRAD - box half-width to search for the local maximum, default=value from config.ini DW - half-width of fitting region centered on local max, default=value from config.ini POST - Flag, if set will cause results to be saved to the database It is really important to test one file from a visit until it looks good then the rest can be run safely without supervision The default is to NOT save anything. OUTPUTS: the hstast.stars database table is modified KEYWORD OUTPUT PARAMETERS: CONFIGURATION: (optional, overrides xtrack.in) File: config.ini [global] boxmrad - search half-width for peak of source, default=3 sdw - Fitting region half-width for stars, default=40 subdir - naem of sub-directory added to base path to find data filetype - type of file to read ('flt' or 'flc'), default='flc' satur - Saturation signal level, default=80000L ndet - Number of detectors, default=2 fov - FOV of instrument in arcsec, default=140 addstars - mode for adding stars to fit list, 'manual' or 'auto' default='manual' [ddir] - section to list potential root directories to find data XXX -XXX is a unique string (eg., D01) is a directory path for additional details see getddir.pro COMMON BLOCKS: SIDE EFFECTS: RESTRICTIONS: PROCEDURE: MODIFICATION HISTORY: 2014/07/08, Written by Marc W. Buie, Southwest Research Institute 2015/11/24, MWB, modified to put full precision catalog position into database 2016/07/15, MWB, added PROPID keyword 2020/06/23, MWB, generalized version 2021/02/03, MWB, fixed bug in getting file type from config.ini
