  • finished UML diagram for ippToPsps code
  • shifted processing over to IPP user. Have been running as myself up until now
  • added unique index on objID on Object table to ensure no duplicates from DVO
  • various fixes to the Object batches after attempts to load to PSPS:
    • 'dec' is reserved word in MySQL, causing a problem for the OB dec coord field. Implemented a workaround
    • the crazy -999 PSPS default does not fit in a byte, especially not an unsigned bytes
    • units issues for mags - converting from millimags (provided by IPP) to mags
    • huge mag errors found in some DVO objects: setting to NULL using a cut set by Gene
  • problem with dvograbber program when running as IPP user: had been building against old libraries: fixed
  • changes to incorporate Bill's new skycells table, which is now part of gpc1
  • found duplicates in DVO object tables. Because DVO tables relate using row numbers, I keep the duplicates, populate mags and colors, then discard the duplicates
  • code in Dvo class to check for any ingested tables that need to be cleaned up
  • ippToPsps training for Heather and Thomas, helped loading new SA3
  • lots of documentation

Mark Huber

  • out sick Tuesday+Wednesday
  • DRAVG minutes, stack and staticsky samples for Dave Thilker,
  • ppStack: continued looking at the rejected (or should be) input images as well as the rejection logic.

  • Dark/detrend/false positive work: http://svn.pan-starrs.ifa.hawaii.edu/trac/ipp/wiki/Background_Dark_Model#April92012
  • Finished creating new array of darks to cover the time period from 2010-01-23 to the present. Finished creating preliminary noisemap detrends for the full time range of the survey up until now. Ran set of tests to confirm that the OTA67 slopes are improved by these new dark models.
  • Worked at developing a method to scale the noisemap values to do a better job at rejecting false positives. The difficulty in this task is arriving at a conclusion that is minimally arbitrary.
