FAST Data Directories

All FAST data since January 5, 2005 has been reduced more or less this way

Task

Commands to Reduce Last Night's Data

5. Make sure that files are archived appropriately

Check to make sure that the spectra got archived OK by using fall to list the one-dimensional spectrum files in /home/fast/arch/[yyyy]/[yyyy.mmdd] and the two-dimensional wavelength-aligned spectrum files in /home/fast/ared/[yyyy]/[yyyy.mmdd]

1. Catalog FAST raw data archive

2. Transfer raw data to reduction/working directory

3. Align spectra for one configuration

4. Extract, Cross-correlate and Check spectra

5. Make sure that files are archived appropriately

6. Distribute FAST data from one night
