Introductory Guide to Simdata
- Simdata version for CASA 3.1
Explanation of the guide
This guide is intended to be used as an initial walk-through of how to use simdata. We will start with an image similar to something that might be observed with ALMA, and then we will show how to rescale the image and predict how it will look when observed with different antenna configurations.
We will assume only a general knowledge of interferometry and no specific knowledge of CASA.
Getting Started
The two things you need to get started are:
- The image to work with
- The current version of CASA
To get the image, download the Spitzer IRAC 8 micron image of 30 Doradus from the Simulation Inputs CASA Guide page.
To install CASA, follow the instructions given here.
