With 2 releases per year, there was 2 years of development between versions used:
Release notes can be found for the past 2 years at: https://pipelines.lsst.io/releases/index.html
The major changes include:
- Generation 3 middleware
- Difference Imaging Analysis (DIA) Pipeline
- Native transformation of parquet tables to the standard data model: https://dm.lsst.org/sdm_schemas/browser/
- Scarlet for deblending on coadd measurement and major change in columns that build up `detect_isPrimary`
- Streak masking during coaddition
- Addition of sky objects in Object Tables and sky sources Source Tables.
- GAAP columns in the Object table for galaxy colors
- Updated the thresholds for per detector visit-level PSF quality safeguards for inclusion in coadds (

). This is to ensure detectors with "bad" PSF model fits do not get included in the coadd. Specifically, we set the following for LSSTCam-imSim:
- maxEllipResidual = 0.0045 (default is 0.007)
- maxScaledSizeScatter = 0.006 (default is 0.009)
- Single Frame Configs:
- Used chebyshev polynomial order for background fitting = 1 and no SkyCorrection
- Source selection for measurePsf in `charImage`:
charImage.measurePsf.starSelector["objectSize"].signalToNoiseMin = 50
* Compare https://github.com/lsst/obs_lsst/blob/dc2/run2.2/config/imsim/processCcd.py with https://github.com/lsst/obs_lsst/blob/v23.0.x/config/imsim/characterizeImage.py and https://github.com/lsst/obs_lsst/blob/v23.0.x/config/imsim/calibrate.py - Added a delta-magnitude (source vs. reference) rejection to astrometry fitting task ( - DM-30490Getting issue details... STATUS , - DM-30943Getting issue details... STATUS )
- Added a maximum mean offset threshold for the SFM astrometry fit to be considered a "success" ( - DM-32129Getting issue details... STATUS ). This safeguards against detectors whose fit did converge but had high on-sky scatter from getting into the coadds.
