Format of the “id” files from the identify task

Mike Potter wrote on Nov 10, 2016


In the "id" file that is output by the identify task (ex: kpnoslit.identify) there is a table that has the pixel and wavelength values entered by the user during line identification. There is another wavelength value shown as well, which I'm assuming is the result of that line's pixel location run through the fitted function? Here's an example of the table I'm referring to:

The values in question would be the second column, the first entry of which is 4510.73718. What are the other values in the table?

Thanks!

For each of the features, the values are:

- feature pixel coordinates

- feature fit coordinates

- feature user coordinates

- weights

- width

- type (emission=1, absorption=2)

- label string

where the width and type come from the parameter settings and are not computed.
