scatterdb_convert - converts old style scattering database to new style scattering database.
scatterdb_convert [OPTIONS]
Copies the scatterdb to outputdb adding fields to adhere to the new style scattering database required by scatter-1.0.1 and greater.
The hdosxform_db and mirror_db are used to determine the zone geometry in the body center coordinates.
The following options are supported:
scatterdb_convert \ --hdosxformdb /proj/axaf/simul/databases/mirror/hdos_xform.rdb \ --mirrordb /proj/axaf/simul/databases/mirror/EKCHDOS06.rdb \ --scatterdb /proj/axaf/simul/databases/scatter/HDOS_980623a.rdb \ --outputdb ./HDOS_980623a.rdb
The HDOS transform database must contain the mirror name, mirror end cut position, and mirror length in the mirror, Z_ec, and L columns respectively.
The mirror database must contain the mirror name and Z position of the body center of the optic in the mirror and z0 columns respectively.
The scatter database must contain the mirror name, Z position of the zone minimum, Z position of the zone maximum, and the binary format scattering distribution file in the mirror, zmin, zmax, and scat_file columns respectively.
