• lots of work to populate object colors from DVO tables using row numbers as index
  • worked on stored procedure with cursor to get around DVO mags stored by row number issue, but ended up...
  • adding row-count columns to cps and object tables, indexing then joining. Faster
  • method to query Photcodes table and get index of each available filter, which defines order in cps file
  • method to get mags from cps file given list of filters (above)
  • method to calculate colors from mags
  • calculating flux in Janskys
  • various other fields populated
• adapted ODM and cleanup programs to incorporate new object batches
• writing metadata for object batches to ipptopsps database
• tested new version of java jre, which fixed an oustanding bug in certain ippToPsps programs. Good news.
• now, all programs can choose to use 'all' configs, meaning they will cycle through all active configs. handy for metrics and polling programs
• began setting up ippToPsps to run as IPP user
• incorporated nice user prompted config maker into all programs
• created and loaded IN, P2, ST and OB batches in order to test OB loading on sandbox
• lots of documentation, including work on UML diagram for ippToPsps code

Mark Huber
