8.3 Orbit Use Determination Examples
The easiest way to learn to compute total orbit time requests is to work through a few examples. Below we provide five different examples:
- Example 1 is a simple WFC image in one filter.
- Example 2 is a set of short WFC exposures that may require large overheads associated with buffer dumps.
- Example 3 is a one-orbit coronagraphic observation in two filters.
- Example 4 is a two-orbit observation using dithering.
- Example 5 is a one orbit WFC grism spectroscopic observation.
These examples represent fairly typical uses of ACS.
