xcavation

🏗️ xcavation 🏗️ Xcavation is a Python package for rapid forced-photometry calculations of SPHEREx QR2 spectral data. It uses the astroquery.irsa package to access SPHEREx images through the IRSA API through PyVO. Both aperture and PSF photometry are supported and include multi-threading for improved performance. 🔍 Example 🔎 The example notebook is provided through Google Colab, as it has excellent internet speed for the image API. 🛠️ Installation 🛠️ Download Python: Visit here to install Python Download pip: Visit here to install pip Run Install Command: Run the command in terminal: pip install xcavation 📞 Support Team 📞 Mr. Hunter Brooks: hbrooks8 (at) rockets.utoledo.edu Dr. Michael Cushing 📖 Acknowledgments 📖 If you intend to publish any calculations done by xcavation, please reference this Zenodo DOI.
