Fermitools Cicerone—Observation Simulation

Simulating the data that a detector might observe is a fundamental part of the analysis process since it demonstrates the detector's capability to detect a hypothetical sky model, and the analysis tools' ability to extract the desired information from the observations. This section describes the methodology behind the observation simulation tools, and provides guidance into their use.
