Detailed Description

Virtual column engine to return derived MS values

Intended use:

Public interface

Review Status

Test programs:
tDerivedMSCal

Prerequisite

Synopsis

DerivedMSCal makes it possible to have virtual columns for the derived MeasurementSet values hourangle, parallactic angle, azimuth/elevation, and local sidereal time. In this way such derived values appear to be ordinary columns with the exception that no values can be put into them.

The following columns can be defined:

All columns have data type double and unit radian (except UVW). The HADEC, AZEL, ITRF and UVW columns are array columnns while the others are scalar columns.

This engine is meant for a MeasurementSet, but can be used for any table containing an ANTENNA and FIELD subtable and the relevant columns in the main table (ANTENNA1 and/or ANTENNA2, FIELD_ID, and TIME).
In principle the array center is the Observatory position, which is taken from the Measures Observatory table using the telescope name found in the OBSERVATION subtable. However, if the subtable is not defined or empty or if the telescope name is unknown, the position of the first antenna is used as the array position.

The engine can also be used for a CASA Calibration Table. It understands how it references the MeasurementSets. Because calibration tables contain no ANTENNA2 columns, columns XX2 are the same as XX1.

Motivation

It makes it possible to use generic table software (like querying, plotting, tablebrowser) on these values.

Example

The following example shows how to add such columns to an MS and use them thereafter.

// Open the table for update (to be able to add the columns).
Table tab ("tDerivedMSCal_tmp.tab", Table::Update);
// Define the columns and add them using DerivedMSCal.
TableDesc td;
td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<double>("HA1"));
td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<double>("HA2"));
td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<double>("PA1"));
td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<double>("PA2"));
DerivedMSCal dataMan;
tab.addColumn (td, dataMan);
// Print values of all rows.
ScalarColumn<double> ha1(tab, "HA1");
ScalarColumn<double> ha2(tab, "HA2");
ScalarColumn<double> pa1(tab, "PA1");
ScalarColumn<double> pa2(tab, "PA2");
for (rownr_t row=0; row<tab.nrow(); ++row) {
cout << ha1(row)<<' '<<ha2(row)<<' '<<pa1(row)<<' '<<pa2(row)<<endl;
}

virtual

Record a record containing data manager specifications.

Reimplemented from casacore::DataManager.

◆ dataManagerType()

virtual String casacore::DerivedMSCal::dataManagerType ( ) const
virtual

Get the type name of the data manager (i.e.

DerivedMSCal).

Implements casacore::DataManager.

◆ makeIndArrColumn()

Reimplemented from casacore::VirtualColumnEngine.

◆ makeObject()

static DataManager* casacore::DerivedMSCal::makeObject ( const String dataManName,
const Record spec 
)
static

Make the object from the type name string.

This function gets registered in the DataManager "constructor" map. The caller has to delete the object. The dataManName is not used.

◆ makeScalarColumn()

virtual DataManagerColumn* casacore::DerivedMSCal::makeScalarColumn ( const String aName,
int  aDataType,
const String aDataTypeID 
)
privatevirtual

Create a column in the storage manager on behalf of a table column.

The caller has to delete the newly created object.

Create a scalar column.

Reimplemented from casacore::VirtualColumnEngine.

◆ operator=()

DerivedMSCal& casacore::DerivedMSCal::operator= ( const DerivedMSCal that)
private

Assignment cannot be used.

◆ prepare()

virtual void casacore::DerivedMSCal::prepare ( )
virtual

Prepare the object.

It sets the Table object in the engine.

Reimplemented from casacore::VirtualColumnEngine.

◆ registerClass()

static void casacore::DerivedMSCal::registerClass ( )
static

Register the class name and the static makeObject "constructor".

This will make the engine known to the table system.

◆ removeColumn()

virtual void casacore::DerivedMSCal::removeColumn ( DataManagerColumn )
privatevirtual

Remove a column from the data file.

It won't do anything.

Reimplemented from casacore::DataManager.
