Usage

atflagger - Automatic flagging of UWL data. This flagger divides each subband into a number of windows, and then uses sigma clipping to remove outliers. The number of windows is set by the 'n-windows' argument, and the number of sigma is set by the 'sigma' argument. Parallelism is handled by dask.distributed. The 'cores' argument sets the number of
Dask workers, and 'threads-per-worker' sets the number of threads. See https://docs.dask.org/en/stable/deploying-python.html#reference for more information.
