== IPP Progress Report for the week 2010.04.05 - 2010.04.09 == [[PageOutline]] (Up to [wiki:IPP_Progress_Reports IPP Progress Reports]) === Eugene Magnier === === Heather Flewelling === * processing czar for 2 days * taught Roy about different pantasks and how to restart them * created sky brightness plots for Ken * Ken posted these on the ps1sc wiki: http://ps1sc.ifa.hawaii.edu/PS1wiki/index.php/SkyBackground * isp processing * sorted out ppImage/psastro problems * working on automated nightly processing of isp data === Bill Giebink === * Continued working through PS2 AC controller settings * Ordered more DNSM parts (hydraulic fluid, hard drives, etc.) * Corrected ipp037 RAID card wiring === Roy Henderson === * PSPS * Bulk of work was finishing new FITS -> CSV code for the DXLayer. * Real data successfully loaded on sandbox with new schema * Helped Sue work through an ODM bug on the Maui cluster * Began design of recovery system with Conrad * IPP * IPP processing training camp with Chris and Heather * Wrote wiki page outlining processing czar duties === Paul Price === * Sent muggled ThreePi.20100330 to MOPS * Set 3pi self-diffs to 'drop' state * Updated ppCoords to take streaks file, and to produce ds9 region files. * Investigating magic triggers: lots of "grass". * Processing czar * Set several tens of failed nightlyscience stacks to 'drop' because input data is ancient and gone. * Set LOTS of data to clean * Investigating claim of diff photometry not going deep enough * Playing with a single chip TTI pair through warp and diff * Instrumental detection limits: chip = -6.9 mag, warp = -6.6 mag, diff = -7.4 mag (all should have the same zero point) --> diff is reasonable, compared to chip * Worrying about covariances again: something goes missing at warp, which appears to be the covariance. * We have a variance map and a covariance "pseudo-matrix" to describe the noise properties, and these two cannot be simply added at the diff stage. Have a solution that could benefit from some simulation to verify. === Bill Sweeney === === Chris Waters ===
