default_imaging_strategy.py

"""
Script that defines the default user processing strategy for imaging only.
Specifying this file as the strategy in the Rapthor parset causes default
Rapthor to use the default behaviour, which is equal to specifying "strategy =
image".

This file is provided to base custom strategies from. See the documentation for
detailed information on each parameter.
