GRID /IMAGE [BEAM beam] [LAM nx rx vx ix] [BETA ny ry vy iy] [LIKE
tempfile]
Grid the tabulated data in a data cube (or a 2-d image if only one
channel is processed, or a mathematical expression). The cube coordinate
axes are normally defaulted from the position of the spectra, assuming
that the angular resolution was 'beam' (in current angle units; a
recommended default is taken for 30m telescope data); otherwise the
LAMBDA and/or BETA axes may be forced by giving the number of pixels
(nx,ny), the reference pixel (rx,ry), the coordinate value at the
reference pixel (vx,vy) , and the pixel size (ix,iy, all in current
angle units). Finally both coordinate axes may be taken from a template
image (LIKE tempfile).
In the APPEND mode, none of the /IMAGE arguments should be given, the
current image (from the previous GRID/IMAGE command) is incrementally
recomputed, adding the new data. This is intended for a real time
display while observing.
