simulating drift scans and compare it with chop/nod
when possible please use naming of parameters as in the instrument dictionary of INS
we shall have more discussions on artefacts by the system (sky, telescope, instrument) that shall be considered or not in the simulator
I appreciate the use of the simulator for testing and verifying the science case performances (at least the major one and one use case per observing mode) also by MST
When possible and applicable please benchmark the new against the old (idl) simulator
