| output.marginAperSpec | int | ≥ 0 | 10 | Padding (in channels) to be added to either side of the aperture spectrum produced by SoFiA. The aperture spectrum will be automatically truncated at the spectral boundaries of the cube if the margin is chosen too large. |
| output.marginCubelets | int | ≥ 0 | 10 | Padding (in pixels) around detections to be added when creating cubelets, moment maps and spectra of individual sources. The same margin will be applied to all axes of the cube. A value of 0 will create tight cutouts without any extra padding, thus minimising file sizes. The default is 10 pixels/channels. |
| output.overwrite | bool | true, false | true | If `true` then existing output files will be overwritten without warning. If `false` then SoFiA will refuse to run if any of the output files and directories to be created already exists. |
| output.showPreviewImage | bool | true, false | false | If set to `true` and the generation of moment maps is also enabled (option `output.writeMoments`) then SoFiA will display a low-resolution preview image of the moment-0 map of all detections in the terminal. Note that this will only work in modern terminals with full Unicode and 24-bit true-colour support. The image may not be displayed correctly in other terminals. Due to limited terminal support, the display of preview images is disabled by default. |
| output.showPreviewImage | bool | true, false | false | If set to `true` and the generation of moment maps is also enabled (option `output.writeMoments`) then SoFiA will display a low-resolution preview image of the moment-0 map of all detections in the terminal. Note that this will only work in modern terminals with full Unicode and 24-bit true-colour support. The image may not be displayed correctly in other terminals. Mac OS users will need to use either xterm with the `-en UTF-8` option or iTerm2 to correctly show the image. Due to limited terminal support, the display of preview images is disabled by default. |
| output.thresholdMom12 | float | | 0.0 | If `output.cubelets` is enabled then the moment 1 and 2 maps for each individual detection will be created using only those spectral channels where the flux density exceeds this value times the local noise level. E.g., setting `output.thresholdMom12 = 3.0` would set a 3-sigma flux density threshold for moments 1 and 2. Note that this setting has no effect on moment 0 maps or global moment 1 and 2 maps. |
| output.writeCatASCII | bool | true, false | true | If set to `true` then an output source catalogue will be produced in plain-text ASCII format. The catalogue file will have the suffix `_cat.txt`. |
| output.writeCatSQL | bool | true, false | false | If set to `true` then an output source catalogue will be produced in SQL format. The catalogue file will have the suffix `_cat.sql`. The SQL catalogue can be imported into any SQL-compatible database. A new data table, named `SoFiA-Catalogue` by default, will be generated and filled with the source parameters measured by SoFiA. |
