Usage

Overview

vimos_ima_standard -- VIMOS standard star recipe.

Take a list of standard frames and correct them to remove bias, dark and flat field signatures. Optionally defringe the reddest filter images. Astrometrically and photometrically calibrate the individual images, but do no stacking

The program accepts the following files in the SOF:

MASTER_2MASS_CATALOGUE_ASTROM A master 2MASS index for astrometry or
MASTER_PPMXL_CATALOGUE_ASTROM A master PPMXL index for astrometry or
MASTER_APASS_CATALOGUE_ASTROM A master APASS index for astrometry or
MASTER_LOCAL_CATALOGUE_ASTROM A master local catalogue index for astrometry
MASTER_APASS_CATALOGUE_PHOTOM A master APASS index for photometry or
