5) Whether to generate the HiPS image maps by applying the (Java) hipsgen
software to our tract/patch-level coadded image data products, or to develop a DM-stack-based (or even Astropy-based) procedure for generating HiPS maps (potentially yielding improved and more quantitatively useful results);
- Gregory Dubois-Felsmann is experimenting with using
hipsgen
to build maps from the LSST coadds of the public HSC data release.
6) Whether using hipsgen or our own software, what algorithm to use for the aggregation of pixel data up the HiPS hierarchy;
