This tutorial is based on the SKA Data Challenge 1. The aim of the tutorial is to learn to identify and classify sources is radio images. The data provided is simulated, to represent what the SKA data will look like once the telescope is in operation.

The aim of the tutorials is as follows:

  • Source finding (RA, Dec) to locate the centroids and/or core positions,
  • Source property characterization (integrated flux density, possible core fraction, major and minor axis size, major axis position angle)
  • Source classification (one of SFG, AGN-steep, AGN-flat)

Data

3 different simulated data are used in this workflow, where the simulation represents the following frequencies:

  • 560 MHz
  • 1400 MHz
  • 9200 MHz
>  bash binder/download_sample_data.sh

Hackathon Task

From the proposed pipeline, investigate new ways to find/classify sources.

Prerequisites

All the libraries/dependencies necessary to run the tutorials are listed in the requirements.txt file.

Installation

All the required libraries can be installed using pip and the requirements.txt file in the repo:

> pip install -r requirements.txt
