Interoperability<br />

● CASA formats:<br />

– VLA export, UVFITS, Measurement Set, SDM<br />

● Loses FITS calibration, flags, pol. leakage etc. tables<br />

– Apply these first e.g. SPLIT<br />

● No FITS antenna table keyword for antenna diameter<br />

– Need to edit LOFAR source table, ATCA velocities<br />

● Usually due to data provider writing dodgy formats<br />

● But CASA should allow array properties in data table<br />

● RadioNet ALBiUS interoperability workpackage<br />

– Implement missing algorithms (cooperate w. NRAO)<br />

– Improve CASA/AIPS interoperability at key points<br />

● Via Parseltongue (python AIPS wrapper)<br />

● Look for CASA strengths, not exact translation<br />
