This program creates flat-field images for line scan, push frame, and framing instruments. All input cubes should have the same number of samples; any images in the list that do not have the same number of samples as the first image will not be used. The names of the cube files used to create the flat-field image must be entered using an ASCII file (FROMLIST) with one filename per line (any line beginning with a '#' or '//' is treated as a comment). The specific equation for each camera type is below.

• Line Scan

A frame is a NUMLINES line section of data. The equation for the final single line, single band, flat field file is:
Mean Calculation:
Sum( Sum(FrameColumn) / Average(Frame) * ValidPixels(FrameColumn) ) / TotalColumnValidPixels
Median Calculation:
Median(PixelColumn(ValidPixel / Average(Frame)))

• Push Frame

Mean Calculation:
The equation for the final single framelet, single band flat field file is:
Average( PixelInFramelet1, PixelInFramelet2, PixelInFramelet3, ... )
Median Calculation:
Median(PixelColumn(ValidPixel / Average(Frame)))

• Framing

Mean Calculation:
The equation for the final single framelet, single band flat field file is:
Average( PixelInCube1, PixelInCube2, PixelInCube3, ... )
Median Calculation:
Median(PixelColumn(ValidPixel / Average(Frame)))
