option to run without input sky model?
Hi,
I think that presently I Rapthor requires an input sky model for the first DD calibration. Certainly this is a really good option as in the future hopefully we have good sky models over the entire hemisphere and these can be used to have fast calibration. However, I was wondering if it were also possible to run it without an input sky model. Just thinking that the LOFAR data are generally so much more sensitive than existing models in some regions of the sky that the model derived directly from the LOFAR data may be better than a model derived from another survey.
Thanks,
Tim
