Pointing Offset Script

This script deploys the SKA pointing offset pipeline, which calculates pointing offsets from “pointing”-type scan data. The pipeline is deployed by SDP using the pointing-offset helm chart.

To set up SDP on your local machine using Minikube (or a remote cluster), follow the instructions at Installing SDP. If you want to test the script, we suggest you deploy SDP together with itango.

The script is configured using a JSON configuration string, and implemented by running the SDP AssignResources command on the subarray device. The options for the configuration string, and the necessary environment variables are described in Configuring the Script.

A detailed procedure to test the script is described in Step-by-step testing in SDP and also demonstrated in a Jupyter notebook in the SDP Notebooks repository.
