The msconcat utility is used to concatenate measurement sets.

One of the intended use-cases of this tool is to concatenate measurement sets from different observations into a single measurement set. It is used, for example, to create a single measurement set from multiple scheduling blocks. See documentation on casacore task MSConcat for more information.

Running the program

It can be run with the following command

$ msconcat -o output_file list_of_input_files

The msconcat program is not parallel/distributed, it runs in a single process.

Configuration Parameters

At this time msconcat does not accept a configuration parameter file.

Examples

Example 1:

$ msconcat -o combo.ms block_???.ms

Example 2:

$ msconcat -o cat.ms sb1.ms sb2.ms sb3.ms
