NAME¶
MakeCatalog - Make a catalog from labeled input imagesSYNOPSIS¶
astmkcatalog [OPTION...] ASTRdataDESCRIPTION¶
MakeCatalog is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.2.33-8a3b. MakeCatalog will create a catalog from an input, labeled, and noise identification images.For more information, please run any of the following commands. They will respectively show you the `Invoking MakeCatalog' subsection, the complete `MakeCatalog' section, or the full GNU Astronomy Utilities manual. In particular the first contains a very complete explanation of each option.
- info astmkcatalog
- info MakeCatalog
- info gnuastro
If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run:
- info help-gnuastro
