This example performs isophotal analysis with deblending of overlapped images on a frame containing a mixture of stars and galaxies. The results are then plotted on a hardcopy device.
# pisafind
IN - NDF containing input image > frame
Analysing whole image
MINPIX - Minimum pixel size for images (typically 4-16) > 6
METHOD - Intensity analysis ( 0=Isophotal, 1=Total, 2=Profile ) > 0
Estimated background level = 492.2
Background standard deviation = 7.4
BACKGROUND - Background (global sky) value /492.17/ >
THRESH - Threshold for analysis (data units) > 11.5
Total number of positive images = 141
The results have been written to pisafind.dat
