.. doctest-skip-all .. _astroquery.eso: ****************************** ESO Queries (`astroquery.eso`) ****************************** Getting started =============== This is a python interface for querying the ESO archive web service. For now, it supports the following: - listing available instruments - listing available surveys (phase 3) - searching all instrument specific raw data: http://archive.eso.org/cms/eso-data/instrument-specific-query-forms.html - searching data products (phase 3): http://archive.eso.org/wdb/wdb/adp/phase3_main/form - downloading data by dataset identifiers: http://archive.eso.org/cms/eso-data/eso-data-direct-retrieval.html Requirements ============ The following packages are required for the use of this module: * keyring * lxml * requests >= 2.4.0 Authentication with ESO User Portal =================================== Whereas querying the ESO database is fully open, accessing actual datasets requires authentication with the ESO User Portal (https://www.eso.org/sso/login). This authentication is performed directly with the provided :meth:`~astroquery.query.QueryWithLogin.login` command, as illustrated in the example below. This method uses your keyring to securely store the password in your operating system. As such you should have to enter your correct password only once, and later be able to use this package for automated interaction with the ESO archive. .. code-block:: python >>> from astroquery.eso import Eso >>> eso = Eso() >>> # First example: TEST is not a valid username, it will fail >>> eso.login("TEST") # doctest: +SKIP TEST, enter your ESO password: Authenticating TEST on www.eso.org... Authentication failed! >>> # Second example: pretend ICONDOR is a valid username >>> eso.login("ICONDOR", store_password=True) # doctest: +SKIP ICONDOR, enter your ESO password: Authenticating ICONDOR on www.eso.org... Authentication successful! >>> # After the first login, your password has been stored >>> eso.login("ICONDOR") # doctest: +SKIP Authenticating ICONDOR on www.eso.org... Authentication successful! Automatic password ------------------ As shown above, your password can be stored by the `keyring `_ module, if you pass the argument ``store_password=True`` to ``Eso.login()``. For security reason, storing the password is turned off by default. MAKE SURE YOU TRUST THE MACHINE WHERE YOU USE THIS FUNCTIONALITY!!! NB: You can delete your password later with the command ``keyring.delete_password('astroquery:www.eso.org', 'username')``. Automatic login --------------- You can further automate the authentication process by configuring a default username. The astroquery configuration file, which can be found following the procedure detailed in `astropy.config `_, needs to be edited by adding ``username = ICONDOR`` in the ``[eso]`` section. When configured, the username in the ``login()`` method call can be omitted as follows: .. code-block:: python >>> from astroquery.eso import Eso >>> eso = Eso() >>> eso.login() # doctest: +SKIP ICONDOR, enter your ESO password: NB: If an automatic login is configured, other Eso methods can log you in automatically when needed. Query the ESO archive for raw data ================================== Identifying available instrument-specific queries ------------------------------------------------- The direct retrieval of datasets is better explained with a running example, continuing from the authentication example above. The first thing to do is to identify the instrument to query. The list of available instrument-specific queries can be obtained with the :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.list_instruments` method. .. code-block:: python >>> eso.list_instruments() ['fors1', 'fors2', 'vimos', 'omegacam', 'hawki', 'isaac', 'naco', 'visir', 'vircam', 'apex', 'uves', 'giraffe', 'xshooter', 'muse, 'crires', 'kmos', 'sinfoni', 'amber', 'gravity', 'midi', 'pionier'] In the example above, 22 instruments are available, they correspond to the instruments listed on the following web page: http://archive.eso.org/cms/eso-data/instrument-specific-query-forms.html. Inspecting available query options ---------------------------------- Once an instrument is chosen, ``midi`` in our case, the query options for that instrument can be inspected by setting the ``help=True`` keyword of the :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_instrument` method. .. code-block:: python >>> eso.query_instrument('midi', help=True) List of the column_filters parameters accepted by the midi instrument query. The presence of a column in the result table can be controlled if prefixed with a [ ] checkbox. The default columns in the result table are shown as already ticked: [x]. Target Information ------------------ target: resolver: simbad (SIMBAD name), ned (NED name), none (OBJECT as specified by the observer) coord_sys: eq (Equatorial (FK5)), gal (Galactic) coord1: coord2: box: format: sexagesimal (Sexagesimal), decimal (Decimal) [x] wdb_input_file: Observation and proposal parameters ------------------------------------ [ ] night: stime: starttime: 00 (00 hrs [UT]), 01 (01 hrs [UT]), 02 (02 hrs [UT]), 03 (03 hrs [UT]), 04 (04 hrs [UT]), 05 (05 hrs [UT]), 06 (06 hrs [UT]), 07 (07 hrs [UT]), 08 (08 hrs [UT]), 09 (09 hrs [UT]), 10 (10 hrs [UT]), 11 (11 hrs [UT]), 12 (12 hrs [UT]), 13 (13 hrs [UT]), 14 (14 hrs [UT]), 15 (15 hrs [UT]), 16 (16 hrs [UT]), 17 (17 hrs [UT]), 18 (18 hrs [UT]), 19 (19 hrs [UT]), 20 (20 hrs [UT]), 21 (21 hrs [UT]), 22 (22 hrs [UT]), 23 (23 hrs [UT]), 24 (24 hrs [UT]) etime: endtime: 00 (00 hrs [UT]), 01 (01 hrs [UT]), 02 (02 hrs [UT]), 03 (03 hrs [UT]), 04 (04 hrs [UT]), 05 (05 hrs [UT]), 06 (06 hrs [UT]), 07 (07 hrs [UT]), 08 (08 hrs [UT]), 09 (09 hrs [UT]), 10 (10 hrs [UT]), 11 (11 hrs [UT]), 12 (12 hrs [UT]), 13 (13 hrs [UT]), 14 (14 hrs [UT]), 15 (15 hrs [UT]), 16 (16 hrs [UT]), 17 (17 hrs [UT]), 18 (18 hrs [UT]), 19 (19 hrs [UT]), 20 (20 hrs [UT]), 21 (21 hrs [UT]), 22 (22 hrs [UT]), 23 (23 hrs [UT]), 24 (24 hrs [UT]) [x] prog_id: [ ] prog_type: % (Any), 0 (Normal), 1 (GTO), 2 (DDT), 3 (ToO), 4 (Large), 5 (Short), 6 (Calibration) [ ] obs_mode: % (All modes), s (Service), v (Visitor) [ ] pi_coi: pi_coi_name: PI_only (as PI only), none (as PI or CoI) [ ] prog_title: ... Only the first two sections, of the parameters accepted by the ``midi`` instrument query, are shown in the example above: ``Target Information`` and ``Observation and proposal parameters``. As stated at the beginning of the help message, the parameters accepted by the query are given just before the first ``:`` sign (e.g. ``target``, ``resolver``, ``stime``, ``etime``...). When a parameter is prefixed by ``[ ]``, the presence of the associated column in the query result can be controlled. Note: the instrument query forms can be opened in your web browser directly using the ``open_form`` option of the :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_instrument` method. This should also help with the identification of acceptable keywords. Querying with constraints ------------------------- It is now time to query the ``midi`` instrument for datasets. In the following example, observations of target ``NGC 4151`` between ``2007-01-01`` and ``2008-01-01`` are searched, and the query is configured to return the observation date column. .. code-block:: python >>> table = eso.query_instrument('midi', column_filters={'target':'NGC 4151', 'stime':'2007-01-01', 'etime':'2008-01-01'}, columns=['night']) >>> print(len(table)) 38 >>> print(table.columns) >>> table.pprint(max_width=100) Object Target Ra Dec Target l b ...

STARINTF 0.54 [0.01] Length = 38 rows And indeed, 38 datasets are found, and the ``DATE OBS`` column is in the result table. Querying all instruments ------------------------ The ESO database can also be queried without a specific instrument in mind. This is what the method :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_main` is for. The associated query form on the ESO archive website is http://archive.eso.org/wdb/wdb/eso/eso_archive_main/form. Except for the keyword specifying the instrument the behaviour of :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_main` is identical to :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_instrument`. ESO instruments without a specific query interface can be queried with :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_main`, specifying the ``instrument`` constraint. This is the case of e.g. ``harps``, ``feros`` or the all sky cameras APICAM and MASCOT. Here is an example to query all-sky images from APICAM with ``luminance`` filter. .. code-block:: python >>> eso.ROW_LIMIT = -1 # Return all results >>> table = eso.query_main(column_filters={'instrument': 'APICAM', 'filter_path': 'LUMINANCE', ... 'stime':'2019-04-26', 'etime':'2019-04-27'}, cache=False) >>> print(len(table)) 207 >>> print(table.columns) >>> table.pprint(max_width=100) OBJECT RA DEC Program_ID ...

In this section, we show how to obtain these processed survey data from the archive. Identify available surveys -------------------------- The list of available surveys can be obtained with :meth:`astroquery.eso.EsoClass.list_surveys` as follows: .. code-block:: python >>> surveys = eso.list_surveys() Query a specific survey with constraints ---------------------------------------- Let's assume that we work with the ``HARPS`` survey, and that we are interested in target ``HD203608``. The archive can be queried as follows: .. code-block:: python >>> table = eso.query_surveys('HARPS', cache=False, target="HD203608") The returned table has an ``ARCFILE`` column. It can be used to retrieve the datasets with :meth:`astroquery.eso.EsoClass.retrieve_data` (see next section). Obtaining extended information on data products =============================================== Only a small subset of the keywords presents in the data products can be obtained with :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_instrument` or :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.query_main`. There is however a way to get the full primary header of the FITS data products, using :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.get_headers`. This method is detailed in the example below, continuing with the previously obtained table. .. code-block:: python >>> table_headers = eso.get_headers(table['DP.ID']) >>> table_headers.pprint() ARCFILE BITPIX ...

In the above table ``table_headers``, there are as many rows as in the column ``table['DP.ID']``. Downloading datasets from the archive ===================================== Continuing from the query with constraints example, the first two datasets are selected, using their data product IDs ``DP.ID`` (or ``ARCFILE`` for surveys), and retrieved from the ESO archive. .. code-block:: python >>> data_files = eso.retrieve_data(table['DP.ID'][:2]) Staging request... Downloading files... Downloading MIDI.2007-02-07T07:01:51.000.fits.Z... Downloading MIDI.2007-02-07T07:02:49.000.fits.Z... Done! The file names, returned in data_files, points to the decompressed datasets (without the .Z extension) that have been locally downloaded. They are ready to be used with `~astropy.io.fits`. The default location (in the astropy cache) of the decompressed datasets can be adjusted by providing a ``location`` keyword in the call to :meth:`~astroquery.eso.EsoClass.retrieve_data`. In all cases, if a requested dataset is already found, it is not downloaded again from the archive. By default, calling ``eso.retrieve_data`` submits a new archive request through the web form to stage and download the requested ``datasets``. If you would like to download datasets from an existing request, either submitted through the functions here or externally, call ``retrieve_data`` with the ``request_id`` option: .. code-block:: python >>> data_files = eso.retrieve_data(table['DP.ID'][:2], request_id=999999) The ``request_id`` can be found in the automatic email sent by the archive after staging the initial request, i.e., https://dataportal.eso.org/rh/requests/[USERNAME]/{request_id}. A summary of your available requests is shown at https://dataportal.eso.org/rh/requests/[USERNAME]/recentRequests. Note: The function does check that the specified retrieval URL based on ``request_id`` is valid and then that the datasets indicated there are consistent with the user-specified ``datasets``, but there is currently no reverse checking that the specified ``datasets`` are provided in ``request_id``.
