The Visual Spatial Editor
The Visual Spatial Editor is a graphical tool to aid in choosing input parameters for the Field Setup of a Science Goal or the Field Source of a Scheduling Block. It consists of a graphical interface that is described here, but also contains the Forms editors that are described in Sections 5.2 and 6.5. An example of the image display can be seen in Figure 7.1.
Figure 7.1:
An example of the image display area of the Visual Spatial Editor. This is for a custom mosaic and shows the antenna beamsize (field of view) of the individual pointings (in red). The green, dashed circles indicate the inner third of the field of view. This is to emphasise to the user that the sensitivity drops off away from the pointing centre.
