Scorer

class astroplan.Scorer(blocks, observer, schedule, global_constraints=[])

Bases: object

Returns scores and score arrays from the evaluation of constraints on observing blocks

Parameters

blockslist of ObservingBlock objects

list of blocks that need to be scored

observerObserver

the observer

scheduleSchedule

The schedule inside which the blocks should fit

global_constraintslist of Constraint objects

any Constraint that applies to all the blocks

Methods Summary

create_score_array([time_resolution])	this makes a score array over the entire schedule for all of the blocks and each Constraint in the .constraints of each block and in self.global_constraints.
from_start_end(blocks, observer, start_time, ...)	for if you don't have a schedule/ aren't inside a scheduler

Methods Documentation

create_score_array(time_resolution=<Quantity 1. min>)

Parameters

time_resolutionQuantity

the time between each scored time

Returns

score_arrayndarray

array with dimensions (# of blocks, schedule length/ time_resolution
