Parameters
Keyword Posn Type Description
------- ---- ---- -----------
INP 1 UNIV Input binned dataset to be smoothed.
May be primitive
-GLOBAL.BINDS (Default binned dataset)
OUT 2 UNIV Output dataset
->GLOBAL.BINDS (Default binned dataset)
SDIMS - INTEGER Array of those dimensions to be smoothed.
Can contain only 1 or 2 axis numbers at
present.
Default = 1
SNR - REAL The target signal to noise. Controls how
much smoothing is done at each data level
Default = 3
FILTER - INTEGER The mask form. 1=gaussian, 2=tophat
Default = 1
OPT - INTEGER Option for setting data levels at which
input is smoothed. If 1, values are
linearly spaced between min and max in data,
logarithmically if OPT=2, or at arbitrary
user supplied levels if OPT=3.
Default = 2
NLEV - INTEGER Number of levels for OPT=1,2.
Default = 5
BIAS - REAL See sub-topic "Biasing"
Default = |dmin| + 1% * dmax/math
LEVS REAL Array of data levels at which smoothing is
performed. Only used if OPT=3.
WSTART - INTEGER Initial guess for mask width.
Hidden default = 3
WMAXSZ - INTEGER Maximum half width of mask in pixels. The
Hidden default = 30 mask size for a given SNR is limited by
this quantity - it can be made as large
as you like.
