mBackground
(in_image, out_image, A, B, C, debug_level=None, no_area=False, status_file=None)[source] [edit on github]¶ Remove a background plane from a FITS image. The background correction applied to the image is specified as Ax+By+C, where (x,y) is the pixel coordinate using the image center as the origin, and (A,B,C) are the background plane parameters specified as linear coefficients. To run in ‘table’ mode, see mBackground_tab.
Parameters: in_image : str
Input FITS file
out_image : str
Output FITS file
A, B, C : str
Corrections (as given by mFitplane or mFitExec)
debug_level : int, optional
Turns on debugging to the specified level.
no_area : bool, optional
Indicates that no area images are present (assumes equal weighting for each data pixel)
status_file : str, optional
mBackground output and errors will be written to status_file instead of stdout.
