getObservationStartDateFromASDMs

Return to directory of Todd's CASA extensions

For a list of ASDMs, writes a file containing the start date/time of each, and optionally the antenna list and mean frequencies. Calls getObservationStartDateFromASDM for each ASDM.

Usage:

  au.getObservationStartDateFromASDMs(asdmlist, outfile='asdm_dates.txt', getAntennas=False, getSBFrequencies=False)
  • asdmlist: either a list of strings, or a string containing a wildcard pattern
  • getAntennas: if True, then also list the antennas
  • getSBFrequencies: if True, then also list the mean frequencies of LSB and USB (using getMeanFreqFromASDM)

Example:

CASA <17>: au.getObservationStartDateFromASDMs('uid*')
Result left in asdm_dates.txt
CASA <18>: !more asdm_dates.txt
