NAME: rdainfo PURPOSE: Read final astrometry information file. DESCRIPTION: CATEGORY: File I/O CALLING SEQUENCE: rdainfo,file,object,firstfile,nobs,rmag,rmagerr,rate,angle,arc, dt,vsig,sel,dist,nobj INPUTS: file - Information file to be read. OPTIONAL INPUT PARAMETERS: KEYWORD INPUT PARAMETERS: OUTPUTS: object - Name of object measured (string) firstfile - Name of file (may include chip id) of first measure (string) nobs - Number of observations of this object in this dataset (int) rmag - Average R magnitude of object (float) 99.9 means no good magnitude could be measured rmagerr - Error on R magnitude of object (float) rate - Rate of motion, arcsec/hour (float) angle - Direction of motion, E from N, degrees (float) arc - Arclength of this measurement, arcsec (float) dt - Time span of this measurement, hours (float) vsig - velocity dispersion of measurements, sigma of "/hr (float) valid only when nobs>2 sel - Solar elongation, degrees (int) dist - Approximate distance to object, AU (float) this assumes object is precisely at opposition. nobj - Total number of obects (0 if file is empty or missing).
