... The existing package features many applications which are required for the next generation telescopes under development (e.g., multi-field, multi-scale, and wide field imaging algorithms, full primary beam Stokes I,Q,U,V imaging, automated and interactive statistical data editing, flexible calibration and self-calibration based on the telescope measurement equation; we highlight some of this functionality and discuss the future directions for the applications and underlying technology. ...

... As described in "Tabular Storage of STIS Data" on page 20-5 , raw time-tagged Sdata are stored in an event table which contains separate columns for the x and y pixel coordinates and the arrival time of each detected photon event. ... Generate a series of ACCUMulated images from user specified time intervals of data and then process the image(s) with calstis . ... The default behavior for inttag is to accumulate all events from the table, writing the results as one image set in the output FITS file....

... This task has been developed from, and is intended to replace, the sas task attcalc . Why write a whole new package, rather than modifying the existing attcalc ? ... A: it seems now to be generally accepted among the SAS development team that the coordinate transform routine employed by attcalc contains an error (it results in an inversion of the sign of the boresight roll angle). ... The errors thus cancel in the existing sas. ... The transform routine is now available as a library function; . ...
