PSNSC_NCU requirements and notes (draft) --

NCU observations -- processing needs to be finished by early morning for MOPS to use

• obs_mode NCU (new Oct 2016) -- 8 pointings, 16 dithers for 6 hrs, 45s exptime over 4 nights?
  • MD-like dither (rotation) plus small offsets?
  • WSdiff only and published to normal MOPS datastore location
• chip->warp normal stdscience pantasks as with xSS products
• WSdiff runs in ~ippmops/stdscience_ws to make uncompressed WSdiffs (like FSS) -- larger volume, may need more nodes

Processing products -- czar needs to make sure all faults and issues are cleared daily (early morning) for NCU.* products

• chip-cam-warp -- NCU.nightlyscience -- nightly
• warp-stack diffims -- NCU.WS.nightlyscience -- nightly
• publishing of WSdiffs -- -- nightly
• nightly stack -- NCU.nightlyscience -- nightly
• stack-stack diffims -- NCU.SS.nightlyscience -- nightly
• stamps -- TBD

Cleanup --

• chip -- 1 days
• warp -- 2 days (no specific requirement?)
• WSdiff -- 1 days -- if disk space issue, can reduce this to 2 days as long as warps uncleaned the update time is minimal
• publishing WSdiff catalog bundles -- Bill has script doing?
• pstamp -- manual cleanup like other ps_ud_%

Tasks to do --

• verify w-band stacks okay along ecliptic for opposition around October
• check processing rate/nodes for WSdiffs
• MOPS interested in SSdiff --
• publishing location for WSdiff -- IPP-MOPS-TEST or IPP-MOPS-WS
