make_finder_chart¶
- astroquery.alma.utils.make_finder_chart(target, radius, save_prefix, service=<bound method SkyViewClass.get_images of <astroquery.skyview.core.SkyViewClass object>>, service_kwargs={'pixels': 500, 'survey': ['2MASS-K']}, alma_kwargs={'public': False, 'science': False}, **kwargs)[source]¶
Create a “finder chart” showing where ALMA has pointed in various bands, including different color coding for public/private data and each band.
Contours are set at various integration times.
- Parameters:
- target
astropy.coordinatesor str A legitimate target name
- radius
Quantity A degree-equivalent radius.
- save_prefixstr
The prefix for the output files. Both .reg and .png files will be written. The .reg files will have the band numbers and public/private appended, while the .png file will be named prefix_almafinderchart.png
- servicefunction
The
get_imagesfunction of an astroquery service, e.g. SkyView.- service_kwargsdict
The keyword arguments to pass to the specified service. For example, for SkyView, you can give it the survey ID (e.g., 2MASS-K) and the number of pixels in the resulting image. See the documentation for the individual services for more details.
- alma_kwargsdict
Keywords to pass to the ALMA archive when querying.
- private_band_colors / public_band_colorstuple
A tuple or list of colors to be associated with private/public observations in the various bands
- integration_time_contour_levelslist or np.array
The levels at which to draw contours in units of seconds. Default is log-spaced (2^n) seconds: [ 1., 2., 4., 8., 16., 32.])
