-t, --file-type=TYPE

Input file type. This determines the wavelength abscissa adopted for the input file. Valid choices, corresponding to the different grids described by Husser et al. (2013), are HiRes (high-resolution; default), MedRes-A1 (medium-resolution, \(\Delta \lambda = 1\,\angstrom\)) and MedRes-R10000 (medium resolution, \(\mathcal{R}=10\,000\)).

Note

In order for the goettingen_to_specint tool to be built, you must first uncomment/edit the line in $MSG_DIR/Makefile that sets the FITS_LDFLAGS variable. This variable defines the flags used to link against your system’s FITS library.
