Abstract
The open-source Python package Gammapy, developed for the high-level analysis of gamma-ray data, requires gamma-like event lists combined with the corresponding instrument response functions. For a morphological analysis, these data have to include a background acceptance model. Here we report an approach to generate such a model for the MAGIC telescope data, accounting for the azimuth and zenith dependencies of the MAGIC background acceptance. We validate this method using observations of the Crab Nebula with different offsets from the pointing position.
