HIDE & SEEK
HIDE (HI Data Emulator) & SEEK (Signal Extraction and Emission Kartographer) is a set of two independent software packages that simulate and analyze single-dish radio survey data. HIDE forward models the entire radio survey system chain, while SEEK processes simulated (or observed) survey data in a reproducible and consistent way. The two packages were developed based on data taken at the Bleien Observatory.
The HIDE & SEEK packages have been developed at ETH Zurich in the Software Lab of the Cosmology Research Group. Details of the HIDE & SEEK packages can be found in this paper, while a description of the hardware system at the Bleien Observatory can be found in this paper. The development of the two packages are coordinated on GitHub via the external pageHIDEcall_made & external pageSEEKcall_made repos and contributions are welcome. The documentation of HIDE & SEEK are available at external pagehide.readthedocs.iocall_made and external pageseek.readthedocs.iocall_made.
Example Data
A set of raw data from the Bleien Observatory can be found here. This data set can be processed directly through SEEK and corresponds to Figure 3 in Akeret et al. 2016.
