CASA agenda
Agenda for CASA workshop 2010 March 31 - April 1
Please download and install CASA in advance. If you have any problems
please contact us in advance. See Using CASA for links, scripts and
data.
Some of the examples are also bundled inside your CASA distributon
although the scripts may be more complex. The essentials are covered
in the first morning. If you feel you need more basic practice you
can carry on with the first example instead of more specialised topics
in later sessions. On the other hand, if you are happy with the
basics, there are more advanced examples provided or you can bring
data of your own to try out.
