Introduction#

This library aims to provide a set of simple utilities to determine the gain and bias of CCD cameras developed by Marshall Space Flight Center for use in spaceflight.


Examples#

Load and display a single FITS file.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import named_arrays as na
import msfc_ccd

# Load the sample image
image = msfc_ccd.fits.open(msfc_ccd.samples.path_fe55_esis1)

# Display the sample image
fig, ax = plt.subplots(
    constrained_layout=True,
)
im = na.plt.imshow(
    image.outputs.value,
    axis_x=image.axis_x,
    axis_y=image.axis_y,
    ax=ax,
);

API Reference#

msfc_ccd

A Python package for the CCD cameras developed by MSFC.

Reports#
