1
+ Change format in which event timestamps are written to HDF5 files.
2
+ Instead of a single float64 MJD value which has ~µs precision,
3
+ the CTAO high precision time format is used now.
4
+ This stores the timestamp as two uint32 values: seconds
5
+ and quarter nanoseconds since ``1970-01-01T00:00:00.0 TAI ``.
6
+
7
+ This only affects the storage format and the precision,
8
+ the in-memory API is unchanged as it relies on ``astropy.time.Time ``
9
+ and values are converted when reading/writing from/to HDF5.
You can’t perform that action at this time.
