Astro::FITS::HdrTrans::UKIRTDB - UKIRT Database Table translations
%generic_headers = translate_from_FITS(\%FITS_headers, \@header_array); %FITS_headers = transate_to_FITS(\%generic_headers, \@header_array);
Converts information contained in UKIRTDB FITS headers to and from generic headers. See Astro::FITS::HdrTrans for a list of generic headers.
The name of the instrument required to match (case insensitively) against the INSTRUME/INSTRUMENT keyword to allow this class to translate the specified headers. Called by the default can_translate method.
$inst = $class->this_instrument();
Returns "UFTI".
These methods are more complicated than a simple mapping. We have to provide both from- and to-FITS conversions All these routines are methods and the to_ routines all take a reference to a hash and return the translated value (a many-to-one mapping) The from_ methods take a reference to a generic hash and return a translated hash (sometimes these are many-to-many)
Sets the INST-DHS header.
Converts either the EXPOSED or DEXPTIME FITS header into the EXPOSURE_TIME generic header.
Converts the EQUINOX FITS header into B1950 or J2000, depending on equinox value, and sets the COORDINATE_TYPE generic header.
Converts either the SANGLE or the SLIT_PA header into the SLIT_ANGLE generic header.
Converts either the SLIT or the SLITNAME header into the SLIT_NAME generic header.
Converts either the STANDARD header (if it exists) or uses the OBJECT or RECIPE headers to determine if an observation is of a standard. If the OBJECT header starts with either BS or FS, or the DR recipe contains the word STANDARD, it is assumed to be a standard.
Strips the optional 'Z' from the DATE-OBS header, or if that header does not exist, combines the UT_DATE and RUTSTART headers into a unified UTSTART header.
Converts the UTSTART generic header into UT_DATE, RUTSTART, and DATE-OBS database headers.
Strips the optional 'Z' from the DATE-END header, or if that header does not exist, combines the UT_DATE and RUTEND headers into a unified UTEND header.
Converts the UTEND generic header into UT_DATE, RUTEND and DATE-END database headers.
Converts the decimal hours in the FITS header RABASE into decimal degrees for the generic header X_BASE.
Converts the decimal degrees in the generic header X_BASE into decimal hours for the FITS header RABASE.
Converts the decimal hours in the FITS header RABASE into decimal degrees for the generic header RA_BASE.
Converts the decimal degrees in the generic header RA_BASE into decimal hours for the FITS header RABASE.
);
Parses a string as a date. Returns a Time::Piece object.
$time = _parse_date( $date );
Returns undef if the time could not be parsed. Returns the object unchanged if the argument is already a Time::Piece.
It will also recognize a Sybase style date: 'Mar 15 2002 7:04AM' and a simple YYYYMMDD.
The date is assumed to be in UT.
