Data Analysis Plugins

The MOSviz data analysis plugins include operations on both 2D images and Spectrum1D one dimensional datasets. Plugins that are specific to 1D spectra are described in more detail under Specviz:Data Analysis Plugins. All plugins are accessed via the plugin icon in the upper right corner of the MOSviz application.

Gaussian Smooth

Gaussian smoothing of a spectrum is described under Specviz:Data Analysis Plugins:Gaussian Smoothing.

Slit Overlay

A slit can be added to the image viewer by opening the Slit Overlay plugin and clicking the Apply button. The Remove button can be used to remove a slit once it has been applied to the image viewer.

In order to plot a slit onto the image viewer, we need WCS information from an image and slit position from a 2D spectrum. WCS information is taken from the meta attribute of the CCDData object representing the data in the image viewer. The slit position is calculated using the S_REGION header extension value, located in the meta attribute of the SpectralCube object that is active in the 2D spectrum viewer.
