Overview:
Pandeia Engine outputs are, like the inputs, a heirarchical dictionary. They contain:
- "scalar": 0-dimensional extracted values from the extraction aperture, at the wavelength of interest (if a spectroscopic calculation)
- "1d": 1-dimensional spectral outputs (single-valued, if the calculation is an imaging calculation)
- "2d": 2-dimensional detector images
- "3d": 3-dimensional flux cubes of the input scene, created from the scene definition. For IFU modes only, also 3-dimensional reconstructed data cube of the output fluxes.
- "input": A complete copy of the input dictionary
- "information": The configured exposure properties of the calculation
- "warnings": all warnings produced by the Engine
- "transform": WCS information about the 2D output products.
- "debugarrays": (optional)
In addition, if the code is run with the "as_fits" keyword, the 1d, 2d, and 3d output dictionaries will be formatted as FITS HDULists.
