    1111Some notes on what this database contains:
    1212
    13 * all 3pi data taken since the start of demo month (2010/2/12) through last week (2011/2/1).
    14 * 2MASS detections matched to all objects
    15 * average fields for grizy and JHK (eg, avextract g i J K would work)
    16 * zero point calibrations for the PS1 data come from the synthetic photometry database.
    17 * astrometric calibration is the default in-line calibration relative to the 2MASS frame
    18 * average magnitudes use a weighted mean, and skip detections that have PSF_QF < 0.85 (excessively masked objects).  there is no iterative clipping, however.

    2020In addition, there are 4 bit flags available in the average table for
    2121each object to give a hint at quality and extendedness:
    2222
    23 * for all PS1 detections, the detection is considered 'extended' if (mag_psf - mag_ap > 0.5)
    24 * if the number of 'extended detections' exceeds the number of 'psf-like' detections, the object is flagged as "PS1 extended" (objflag & 0x01000000)
    25 * if any of the detections have PSF_QF  > 0.85, then the object is considered "PS1 good" (objflag & 0x04000000)
    26 * similarly, if the 2MASS J-band flags indicate the source is extended, the object is considered "2MASS extended" (objflag & 0x02000000)
    27 * if the 2MASS J-band detection is significant (**), the source is considered "2MASS good" (objflag & 0x08000000)
     23 * for all PS1 detections, the detection is considered 'extended' if (mag_psf - mag_ap > 0.5)
     24 * if the number of 'extended detections' exceeds the number of 'psf-like' detections, the object is flagged as "PS1 extended" (objflag & 0x01000000)
     25 * if any of the detections have PSF_QF  > 0.85, then the object is considered "PS1 good" (objflag & 0x04000000)
     26 * similarly, if the 2MASS J-band flags indicate the source is extended, the object is considered "2MASS extended" (objflag & 0x02000000)
     27 * if the 2MASS J-band detection is significant (**), the source is considered "2MASS good" (objflag & 0x08000000)
