13 Advanced: Polarization Handling

IMAGER recognizes and handles polarization at different levels. Although support for polarization is basically complete for continuum data, including a simple pipeline processing, it remains experimental, and is continuously improving.

Spectral line data processing is also partially possible. However, as signal to noise is often too limited to allow polarization detection, there is no simple pipeline offered to the users, and image analysis (in particular visual display) is not yet available.
