NAME¶
AOFlagger - execute an RFI strategy on one or several observations
SYNOPSIS¶
aoflagger [options] <obs1> [<obs2> [..]]
DESCRIPTION¶
This program will execute an RFI strategy as can be created with the RFI gui and
executes it on one or several observations. This tool supports at least the
Casa measurement set, the SDFITS and Filterbank formats. See the documentation
for support of other file types.
The old name of this program is rficonsole.
OPTIONS¶
- -v
- produce verbose output
- -j
- overrides the number of threads specified in the strategy (default: one
thread for each CPU core)
- -strategy
- specifies a possible customized strategy
- -direct-read
- perform the slowest IO but will always work.
- -indirect-read
- reorder the measurement set before starting, which is normally faster but
requires free disk space to reorder the data to.
- -memory-read
- read the entire measurement set in memory. This is the fastest, but
requires much memory.
- -auto-read-mode
- select either memory or direct mode based on available memory
(default).
- -skip-flagged
- skip an ms if it has already been processed by AOFlagger according to its
HISTORY table.
- -uvw
- reads uvw values (some exotic strategies require these)
- -column <name>
- specify column to flag
- -bands <list>
- comma separated list of (zero-indexed) band ids to process
- -fields <list>
- comma separated list of (zero-indexed) field ids to process
