NAME

impatch - repair images by bi-linear interpolation within a box

SYNOPSIS

impatch fits_file box=n1 [box=n2] [outfile=]

DESCRIPTION

This routine replaces the data interior to the specified box (or boxes) with data that is interpolated from the edges of the box. A simple bi-linear interpolation formula is used.

The result is placed in fits_file unless the outfile= option is specified, at which time the data and header are copied into the specified file.
