[docs]class LinearObs(BaseObs): """Generate observations for a set of Orbits using linear interpolation. Uses linear interpolations between grid of true ephemerides. Ephemerides can be generated using 2-body or n-body integration. Parameters ---------- footPrint: str, opt Specify the footprint for the FOV. Options include "camera", "circle", "rectangle". 'Camera' means use the actual LSST camera footprint (following a rough cut with a circular FOV). Default is circular FOV. rFov : float, opt If footprint is "circle", this is the radius of the fov (in degrees). Default 1.75 degrees. xTol : float, opt If footprint is "rectangle", this is half of the width of the (on-sky) fov in the RA direction (in degrees). Default 5 degrees. (so size of footprint in degrees will be 10 degrees in the RA direction). yTol : float, opt If footprint is "rectangular", this is half of the width of the fov in Declination (in degrees). Default is 3 degrees (so size of footprint in degrees will be 6 degrees in the Dec direction). ephMode: str, opt Mode for ephemeris generation - nbody or 2body. Default is nbody. ephType: str, opt Type of ephemerides to generate - full or basic. Full includes all values calculated by openorb; Basic includes a more basic set. Default is Basic. (this includes enough information for most standard MAF metrics). ephFile: str or None, opt The name of the planetary ephemerides file to use for ephemeris generation. Default (None) will use the default for PyOrbEphemerides. obsCode: str, opt Observatory code for ephemeris generation. Default is "I11" - Cerro Pachon. obsTimeCol: str, opt Name of the time column in the obsData. Default 'observationStartMJD'. obsTimeScale: str, opt Type of timescale for MJD (TAI or UTC currently). Default TAI. seeingCol: str, opt Name of the seeing column in the obsData. Default 'seeingFwhmGeom'. This should be the geometric/physical seeing as it is used for the trailing loss calculation. visitExpTimeCol: str, opt Name of the visit exposure time column in the obsData. Default 'visitExposureTime'. obsRA: str, opt Name of the RA column in the obsData. Default 'fieldRA'. obsDec: str, opt Name of the Dec column in the obsData. Default 'fieldDec'. obsRotSkyPos: str, opt Name of the Rotator column in the obsData. Default 'rotSkyPos'. obsDegrees: bool, opt Whether the observational data is in degrees or radians. Default True (degrees). outfileName : str, opt The output file name. Default is 'lsst_obs.dat'. obsMetadata : str, opt A string that captures provenance information about the observations. For example: 'kraken_2026, MJD 59853-61677' or 'baseline2018a minus NES' Default ''. tstep : float, opt The time between points in the ephemeris grid, in days. Default 2 hours.
