Summary for MD.PV3 (updates in progress)

• MediumDeepFields summary page -- quick links to all up to date refstacks
• MD.GR0 summary page -- summary of all reprocessing details and 2011/2012 refstacks and some deepstack samples
• MD.PV1 summary page -- the data set that PV2 update reprocessing is based on
• MD.PV2 summary page -- update type reprocessing

This is a summary of the MD.PV3 full pixel reprocessing. Start date and schedule TBD.

This processing will also involve other MD-like fields, including M31, STS and CNP. Criteria for the stacks and diffims are TBD.

field	stage	N exposures/units	typical dtime	sig_dtime
MD	chip/camera/warp	41717	130/610/85	130/500/65
	iq stk	~600
	night stk
	ref stk	~600
	deep stk	~600
	WS diff
	SS diff
	iq staticsky
	iq skycal
CNP	chip/camera/warp
M31	chip/camera/warp
	background restore
STS	chip/camera/warp
	ref stk

Issues to address:

• refcat oddities in field
• zeropt recalib in skycal
• stack quality fault
• night stack config, refstack edge loss
• ref+deep stack input cuts

_Summary Status:_

• 10/1 start chip-warp?

chip -- camera -- warp

Should be started ASAP, so that the warps are available for some early testing of the stacks and diffims.

Testing necessary for the M31, STS and CNP processing still.

---

stack

Order of operations important -- while deep stacks take 1.5 months or so to finish, night and seasonal reference stacks must be finished before diffims can be started. Lighter jobs like difference images and iq (even reference stacks) can be run along with the deep stacks for some fields.

difference image

Cannot start until both night and seasonal reference stacks finish.
