Remove frame transfer smear

Overview Parameters

Description

This program removes the frame transfer smear from a CCD camera. Transfer smear is the build up of residual enegy as the data is read from the detector, line by line. The current algorithm is written to remove smear for a CCD that reads data at the top of the detector. No visual examples have been included because, the difference between the input and output is only a few DN values.

Correction Values: DURATION

Description

The exposure duration value to be used in the smear calculation. Exposure duration is the value of time between the opening and closing of a instrument aperture.
If NO value is entered by the user, the value will be filled with the exposure duration keyword from the Instrument group
The exposure duration value must be in the same units as the transfer time.
