Return to Analysis Utilities

This page documents the editIntents function of Python module analysisUtils.

Sometimes the intents for a source specified in the ALMA Observing Tool (OT) are incorrect, especially in Early Science. This problem can confound automatic processing scripts being developed for ES data reduction. To correct this problem, we have borrowed a script from John Lightfoot of the pipeline group, and made it a command-line utility rather than an interactive utility. The available intents are: 'AMPLITUDE','ATMOSPHERE','BANDPASS','DELAY','FLUX','PHASE','SIDEBAND_RATIO','TARGET','WVR'.


Usage:

au.editIntents(msName, fieldID or fieldName, list of intents or comma-delimited string)

Examples

au.editIntents('uid___A002_X142764_X24.ms', field=0, newintents='DELAY,PHASE,WVR')

au.editIntents('uid___A002_X142764_X24.ms', field='3c454.3', newintents=['DELAY','PHASE'])
