3.2 <strong>MOPEX</strong> Input List Files<br />

<strong>MOPEX</strong> User’s <strong>Guide</strong><br />

The data, uncertainty, status mask and, possibly, the outlier mask image files are input into<br />

<strong>MOPEX</strong> via ASCII text files, containing one image filename per line. You will need to make a<br />

separate list file for each of the input image types, and the filenames must be in the same order in<br />

each of the input lists (i.e. the first filename in the list of image files must correspond to the first<br />

filename in the list of uncertainty files and the list of status mask files). As a rule, we recommend<br />

always including the full path name of the image files in the input lists e.g., the list of data files,<br />

InputImageList.txt, should look something like this:<br />

/home/joe/data/IRAC/ch1/bcd/SPITZER_I1_5504256_0001_0000_4_bcd.fits<br />

/home/joe/data/IRAC/ch1/bcd/SPITZER_I1_5504256_0002_0000_4_bcd.fits<br />

/home/joe/data/IRAC/ch1/bcd/SPITZER_I1_5504256_0003_0000_4_bcd.fits<br />

etc......<br />

As an example, to create the input lists for IRAC channel 1 data, in Unix (Solaris/Linux/Mac),<br />

you could use the following syntax:<br />

unix% ls //*bcd.fits > InputImageList.txt<br />

unix% ls //*bunc.fits > InputUncList.txt<br />

unix% ls //*bimsk.fits > InputMskList.txt<br />

The input lists are specified in the Initia l Setup module. The input file format is identical for both<br />

the command-line and the GUI interfaces.<br />

The default location for the input files is in . When specifying input files, you<br />

should use either the full path name or the path relative to the working directory.<br />

3.3 <strong>MOPEX</strong> Input Namelist<br />

The namelist files for each of the <strong>MOPEX</strong> pipelines contain all of the information about the<br />

modules and parameters to be used in a particular reduction. The ASCII versions of the template<br />

namelists used by <strong>MOPEX</strong> are all stored in the directory /cdf/. When using the<br />

GUI, you will most likely start from one of the included <strong>MOPEX</strong> template namelists (go to e.g.<br />

File > New Mosaic Pipeline to access the templates), and edit the included modules and<br />
