Description

This obs_decam package is for interfacing DECam with the LSST Data Management software.

Use

  1. Create a data repository directory:

     $ mkdir /path/to/repo
     $ echo lsst.obs.decam.DecamMapper > /path/to/repo/_mapper
    
  2. Get and build obs_decam:

     $ cd /path/to/work
     $ git clone git://github.com/LSST-nonproject/obs_decam.git
     $ cd obs_decam
     $ setup -t <CURRENT_TAG> -r .
     $ scons install declare --tag=current
    
  3. Import data into the data repository:

     $ cd /path/to/data
     $ setup -t <CURRENT_TAG> pipe_tasks
     $ setup -k -t <CURRENT_TAG> obs_decam
     $ ingestImages.py /path/to/repo --mode=link *.fits
    
  4. Process data

     $ setup -t <CURRENT_TAG> pipe_tasks
     $ setup -k -t <CURRENT_TAG> obs_decam
     $ processCcd.py /path/to/repo --id visit=12345 ccd=5 side=N
    

Data identifiers

The following keywords are available when specifying a data identifier:

  • proposal: proposal identifier
  • visit: exposure number
  • taiObs: actually UTC, but not very useful for specifying data, as must match exactly
  • expTime
  • date
  • filter
  • side: N or S
  • ccd: CCD number; together with side, specifies a unique CCD
  • object: object name

visit, side, ccd are required to specify a unique CCD image.

Notes by ACB

This has been modified to run the equivalent of processCcd on Community-pipeline reduced Decam data. A couple of features:

  • the input data currently need to reside in the --ouput directory.
  • file naming convention is "%(visit)07d/dec%(visit)07d.fits.fz[%(ccd)d]"

Example commands to run the code are below:

  • setup pipe_tasks
  • setup obs_decam
  • setup astrometry_net_data
  • python ~/python/obs_decam/bin/processCcdDecam.py . --id visit=1656128 ccd=1 --output .
