MOPEX (MOsaicker and Point source EXtractor) is a package for reducing and analyzing imaging data, as well as MIPS SED data. MOPEX includes the point source extraction package, APEX. MOPEX is designed to allow the user to: perform sophisticated background matching of individual data frames mosaic the individual frames downloaded from the Spitzer archive perform both temporal and spatial outlier rejection during mosaicking apply offline pointing refinement for MIPS data (refinement is already applied to IRAC data) perform source detection on the mosaics using APEX compute aperture photometry or PRF-fitting photometry for point sources perform interpolation, coaddition, and spectrum extraction of MIPS SED images. MOPEX comes in two different interfaces (GUI and command-line), both of which come packaged together. We recommend that all new users start with the GUI, which is more user-friendly than the command-line interface.
