This package collects together tools for radio astronomical interferometry. In addition to pure-python phasing, calibration, imaging, and deconvolution code, this package includes interfaces to MIRIAD (a Fortran interferometry package) and HEALPix (a package for representing spherical data sets), and some math/fitting routines from SciPy.
Instructions, documentation, and a FAQ may be found at the aipy GitHub page.
We strongly recommend installing AIPY with the conda packaging tool using the public conda-forge package repository:
$ conda install -c conda-forge aipy
If you want to build HTML documentation, you'll need to have
Sphinx installed. Then, change to the doc/
directory and run:
$ make html
The results will appear in doc/build/html. There are plenty of other
build options, too. Many thanks to Jayce Dowell for his work on this.
Enjoy, Aaron Parsons
The subpackage "optimize" was copied in from scipy-0.6.0, and then all code that depended on non-pure-python modules was removed. If these ever need to be updated, download scipy source and copy scipy/scipy/optimize into aipy, and then remove any code deemed unnecessary. Unfortunately, then you may need to crawl through the code and replace all "scipy" references with "aipy".
The subpackage "_cephes" was copied in from scipy-0.6.0/special, and then all but the cephes and c_misc code was removed to avoid needing a Fortran compiler. _cephesmodule.c needed substantial editing to remove external dependencies.
The miriad source code (aipy/miriad/mirsrc) was included from MIRIAD-4.0.5. To update, download miriad source and copy $MIR/src/subs/* and $MIR/src/inc/* into aipy/miriad/mirsrc. Not all files are used, but include them all anyway.
Healpix source code (aipy/healpix/cxx) was included from Healpix-2.01. To update, download healpix source and copy src/cxx into aipy/healpix.
