SOCIS Status report - What is going on?

There was a big silence from my side regarding the improvements in the past month... Sorry about that, but do not worry, I am summarizing up everything below now: 😉 In the official repo you can find right now these two classes: Transform Visibility Transform 's basic purpose to provide a DFT (Discrete Fourier Transformation) and an IDFT (Inverse Discrete Fourier Transformation) method which can be used to create visbility values from intensity maps and in the other way around. An example for the usage of the DFT method: Converting an intensity map into visibility values with DFT method You can find more information about the Transform class on the github wiki of the project. And now about the Visibility class. During synthesis imaging the data comes from different telescopes with different distance from each other. As a result of this we can create images with the same angular resolution what we would get by using a telescope with the size of what is t
