LAP into PSPS 20130717

This wiki describes the process from addstar to ingesting LAP.ThreePi.20130717 into PSPS. There are a few steps:

• run addstar on cam stage
• run addstar on skycal stage
• calibrate dvo (and verify no duplicates and that it is calibrated correctly)
• ingest into dvo

addstar stage

The sky is divided evenly across stsci10 - stsci18, into slices of ra (0 to 2 hr, 2 to 4hr, etc), and segments of dec (-35 to -22, -22 to -10, -10 to 2, 2 to 14, 14 to 26, 26 to 38, 38 to 50, 50 to 62, 62 to 75)

machine	dec range	slice 00 (ra 0 - 30)	slice 02 (ra 30 - 60)	...
stsci10	-35 to -22	LAP.slice00.0.cam	LAP.slice02.0.cam
stsci11	-22 to -10	LAP.slice00.1.cam	LAP.slice02.1.cam
stsci12	-10 to 2	LAP.slice00.2.cam	LAP.slice02.2.cam
stsci13	2 to 14	LAP.slice00.3.cam	LAP.slice02.3.cam
stsci14	14 to 26	LAP.slice00.4.cam	LAP.slice02.4.cam
... etc

This allows addstar to run quickly across the slices (on order of less than a day per slice for the camera stage)

These are queued up via a script, which generates the definebyquery for addtool, removing human typos.
