CASA Contributed Tasks: Overview Learn How to use contributed CASA tasks

How to write your own CASA task


  • listsdm (task) --- A CASA task to list the contents of the SDM archive files
  • plotweather (script) --- Plot the weather conditions and calculate the opacity for each spectral window (EVLA)
  • stitch (task) --- A CASA task that replaces some channels of a spectral with those of a second spectral window. This is useful, e.g., to remove the 128MHz "suckout" frequency ranges and replace them with channels from a slightly frequency-shifted second baseband
  • makeschedule (task) --- A CASA Task to create complete schedules for JVLA observations that can be imported as a scan lists into the OPT, including initial setup, observations of flux and banpass calibrators, pointing scans, and phase calibrators.
