Data Reduction Strategies
Bricky currently handles three distinct single dish observations; Pointing, Flux Density Monitoring and Beam Mapping. Each of these observations require a different reduction strategy to obtain the desired outcome. These strategies are outlined in the following pages.
Pointing Data
Use this strategy to convert Bruce point source scans into a pointing model solution.
Flux Density Monitoring?
Use this strategy to reduce Bruce point source scans into calibrated flux density measurements
Beam Mapping?
Use this strategy to image the telescope bream from Bruce on the fly raster mapping data
