Radio-Millimeter-Submillimeter (RMS) Interferometry-Community-Software

Curated list of interferometric software, methods and techniques

This list was developed during the 2024 Spatio-spectral Modeling for Interferometric Data Workshop (go.nrao.edu/ssmid)

Visibility Handling

• CASA
• casangi
• pyuvdata
• casa-formats-io

Imaging

• CASA - includes several algorithms in tclean (Max. Entropy; Adaptive Scale Pixel)
• casangi
• MPoL
• MrBeam
• LibRA
• wsclean
• [ADD HERE]

Analysis

• radio-astro-tools -- spectral-cube, radio-beam, pvextractor, casa-formats-io
• bettermoments

Methods, Techniques, and Tutorials

• radio-astro-tools tutorials -- tutorials on using spectral-cube, fitting with spectral-cube, parallelization with dask, creating position-velocity diagrams, signal masking and moment map creation, cube reprojection
• Visread: Examining DSHARP AS 209 Weights and Exporting Visibilities -- uses CASA tools to examine the visibilities, visibility residuals, and weights of a real multi-configuration dataset from the DSHARP survey.
