Modules: Mosaic MedFilter

Namelist Trigger: run_mosaic_medfilter
Output Directory Keyword: MEFILTER_DIR
Default Output Directory: <output_dir>/Medfilter
Depends on: Mosaic Combine


PURPOSE

    This module will use a median filter to create a background subtracted version of the final mosaic.

PARAMETER BLOCK

    &MOSAIC_MEDFILTER
     Window_X = 45,
     Window_Y = 45,
     N_Outiers_Per_Window = 500,
    &END

INPUTS

    Window_X: (int) the X size in pixels of the window used to compute the median of the background. The default value is 45

    Window_Y: (int) the Y size in pixels of the window used to compute the median of the background. The default value is 45

    N_Outliers_Per_Window: (int) the number of outlier pixels (N) being rejected from the X*Y window when computing the noise.


OUTPUTS

    Mosaic minback file (mosaic_minback.fits): the background subtracted image saved in the output directory of Mosaic Combine.

DISCUSSION

This module is optional for mosaicking images. It is an optional input to APEX One Frame, if the global background subtraction option is chosen.
