Processing function using the data product

MER

Proposed for inclusion in EAS/SAS

This product is proposed for inclusion in the SAS: yes.

These products contain the image data that was used to perform object detection. It is useful to have them in the SAS in case scientists want to replicate the object detection procedure performed by MER.

Detailed Description of the Data Product

Mosaic used to perform the object detection. It could be a VIS background-subtracted mosaic or a stack of the three NIR background-subtracted mosaics. This product is an output from the MER object detection Processing Element.

The main elements inside this product are:

  • FilterList: List of filters that were used produce to the detection mosaic (normally VIS or NIR filters).

  • WCS: The mosaic astrometric parameters (e.g., CTYPE1, CRVAL2, CRPIX1, CD1_1)

  • ZeroPoint: The photometric reference zero point to convert the image untis to AB-magnitudes.

  • ImgSpatialFootprint: The mosaic spatial footprint.

  • TileIndex: The MER tile index.

  • PatchIdList: The sky patch ids associated to the product.

  • ObservationIdList: List of unique IDs identifying the Euclid observations that were used to generate the product.

  • CalblockIdList: The calibration block ids associated to the product.

  • CalblockVariantList: The calibration block variants associated to the product.

  • ProcessingMode: The MER pipeline processing mode (e.g. WIDE, DEEP) used to generate the product.

  • ReferenceObservationDateTime: Reference observation date time for GAIA proper motion correction (only applicable to Euclid observations).

  • FirstObservationDateTime: Observation date time of the first Euclid observation used to generate the product.

  • LastObservationDateTime: Observation date time of the last Euclid observation used to generate the product.

  • DataStorage: Element that links to a FITS file containing the detection mosaic signal data set.

  • RmsStorage: Element that links to a FITS file containing the detection mosaic rms data set.

  • FlagStorage: Element that links to a FITS file containing the detection mosaic flag data set.

  • PsfModelStorage: Element that links to a FITS file containing the detection mosaic catalog PSF.

  • QualityParams: The detection mosaic image quality parameters.
