| Abstract: |
GBTIDL is an interactive package for the reduction and analysis of spectral line data taken with the Green Bank Telescope (GBT). The software is written entirely in IDL. The top level user interface (the GUIDE layer) consists of a set of straightforward and flexible calibration, averaging, and analysis procedures modeled after the UniPOPS and CLASS data reduction philosophies and command-line interface styles. In addition, GBTIDL provides a customized plotter with many built-in visualization features, and data I/O and toolbox functions that can be used for more advanced tasks. GBTIDL makes use of data structures that represent calibrated or uncalibrated spectra, and the package operates on these structures as a straightforward calculator. SDFITS data are used for I/O. GBTIDL can be run online, giving users access to the most recent data coming off the telescope, or it can be run offline. |
