Processing Data

Info

The Processing Data section is oriented around command line entrypoints (command line tasks or supertasks) and documents processing patterns and algorithmic considerations.

The sections are patterned around typical user pipelines and processing/measurement contexts (single frames, coadds, difference imaging, and multi-epoch datasets). Contexts are slightly different from LDM-151 Section 5 headers. For example, we treat coaddition and difference imaging as different contexts.

In each section, there will be:

  • Overview pages that provide a narrative to command line processing and algorithms.
  • Tutorials that illustrative command line tasks with realistic datasets.
  • Lists of command line tasks, linking to their reference pages. Command line task reference pages are hosted inside package documentatation. Command line task reference pages also link to task reference pages. Organize command line tasks between:
    • processing data
    • measuring data

Frameworks

Info

The Frameworks section is API module oriented. lsst modules (in a Python sense) are organized into framework groups. Each framework group section contains:

  • Overview topics that orient a reader to the APIs in the framework.
  • List of modules, linking to module topic pages (shown below).
