Destreak removes these streaks +and the limb darkening +using a two pass procedure. First, for each diode, a function of the form +'a + b*r**4', where r is the radius from disk center and a, b are parameters, +is fit to the intensity distribution and is then subtracted from the data. +Then a spatial filter is applied to the result and the final image is +written to disk. The full disk images are 2048 x 2048 and are taken using +a 512 diode array which is scanned from west to east across the solar disk +4 times. Thus, data from a particular diode consists of four lines of the +image. +.ih +EXAMPLES +1. To destreak "image1", put the output in "image2", put the temporary image in +"temp2", and see verbose output, the command would be: + +.nf + vt> destreak image1 image2 temp2 v+ +.fi + +.ih +SEE ALSO +readvt, writevt, quickfit, getsqib, putsqib +.endhelp |
