C++ interface

Below the most important parts of the EveryBeam C++ API are documented. The utilities section documents the tools to load a telescope from an input MeasurementSet and specify telescope or element response model options. The section everybeam::telescope documents the actual telescope classes, with the Telescope class being the mother of all telescopes. A GriddedResponse or PointResponse object can be requested from the telescopes, to compute the beam response on a prescribed grid (i.e. image) or for a prescribed direction, respectively. Documentation for the GriddedResponse classes can be found in everybeam::griddedresponse, documentation for the PointResponse classes can be found in everybeam::pointresponse.

For advanced users that want to know more about the beam forming procedure, reference is made to Beamformers and elements
