== IPP Progress Report for the week 2010.01.25 - 2010.01.29 == [[PageOutline]] (Up to [wiki:IPP_Progress_Reports IPP Progress Reports]) === Eugene Magnier === === Heather Flewelling === * culled raw files, freed up 1% of space. * liason duties: emailed Matt Holman * fixed various cells on the magic mask. * created magic verification test set: found from various emails between Gene, Ken, and Will, and added extra md and 3pi. The 'best' set: * magicverify.3pi.%20100127 3 pi fields * magicverify.md.%20100127 md04 with lots of satellite streaks * magicverify.dec07.%20100127 dec=-7.0 * magicverify.ss.%20100127 sweetspot * magicverify.lgl.%20100127 low galactic lat * magicverify.m31.%20100127 m31 * magicverify.shortmd.%20100127 mdfields g,r,i,z 30s * magicverify.md20.%20100127 mdfields (sets of 20, g,r,i,z) * magicverify.dec35.%20100127 dec=-3.5 * stacked and diffed and diffed and magicked and reverted and reverted as necessary. * created !VerifyStreaks for the above labels, and investigated causes of streaks. === Bill Giebink === === Roy Henderson === * workaround for issue of blank rows in DVO tables/jumps in smf data * now batching-up data as requested by PSPS: includes job and batch dirs with XML manifest files (md5sum etc) * created 'product' on Maui datastore (PSPS_test) * throughput test perl script now publishes data to datastore for Conrad to pick-up * lots of back and forth with Conrad regarding specifics of FITS format * working on SQL queries to pull out locations of diffs/batch files === Paul Price === * Added new camera format configuration (format_20100122.config) to handle change to temperature keywords on camera side. * Added function, pmConfigRecipeValueByView to get recipe values dependent upon the camera component of interest. Applied to pattern subtraction within ppImage. * Parameter tuning for stacks; checked works on diff * Magic recertification * Merged pattern subtraction enhancements into branch * Diagnosed memory growth problems as due to change in temperature keywords * Merged new gpc1 configuration file into branch to get temperatures compatible with existing dark frames * Fix to PSF-matching code to measure normalisation independently from other kernel parameters: normalisation is measured in an aperture of carefully-chosen size * Fix to PSF-matching code to only worry about lit pixels to prevent covariance matrix from being evaluated at non-constrained position * Fix to variance renormalisation code to only worry about lit pixels to prevent insane renormalisation values * Compared diffs with dual/single and convolved/unconvolved stacks: now obsolete following above fixes, to be re-done with new code === Bill Sweeney === * Visiting MPG. === Chris Waters ===
