exocode 1.1

Automation of debris disk detection

ExoCode
---------------

Generates .csv files including data on the existence of various features of interest
from the Digitized Sky Survey (DSS), 2-micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), and
Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) image catalogs. The goal is to use the
data to identify candidates that might have circumstellar debris disks.

---------------

TO USE:
--- Use dataAcq.py to retrieve the images for one of the provided catalogs in Catalogs/
You can also use one of your own, provided the format remains the same: ra,dec (degrees)

--- Use dataGen.py to run analysis on the downloaded images and output the results to a new .csv

You should only have to touch the offset code at the top of each program (denoted 'EDITABLE')
to accomplish your analysis

Run Guidelines:
**Assumes data_container variables in each script are equivalent**

Command line:
>>> cd exoCode
>>> python dataAcq.py
>>> python dataGen.py

In python:
>>> from exoCode import dataAcq
>>> from exoCode import dataGen
