x, y Return the value of the map pixel nearest to a given coordinate. EXAMPLE ------- 1. The following use of mapval() displays the flux in the map at a position 3.5 arcsec to the east and 0.7 arcsec to the north of the center of the map. 0>mapunits arcsec Distances in the map plane now have units: arcsec. Distances in the UV plane now have units: kilo-wavelengths. 0>print mapval(3.5,0.7) 0.293557 0> 2. The flux at the center of the map can be displayed with: 0>print mapval(0,0) 3.44326 0> PARAMETERS ---------- x - The X offset with respect to the center of the map, as displayed by maplot. y - The Y offset with respect to the center of the map, as displayed by maplot. SIDE-EFFECTS ------------ If the map is out of date with the UV data then it will be re-inverted before returning a value. RELATED FUNCTIONS ----------------- peak - Return details of the min,max or absolute max flux in a map. imstat - Return image plane map statistics.
