This page is a place to gather up missing or underspecified requirements that would prevent or hinder us from delivering construction.
- What are the open science questions that we must answer in order for the institutional science leads to deliver their products?
- What in the DMSR (i.e. misspecified or underspecified requirements) impairs our ability to deliver on the institutional requirements, and to verify that we've done so?
- How do we want to prioritize these?
| What | Detailed Description | DMSR requirements (if any) | Prioritization | Applicable Ticket(s) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clear specification of the capabilities or at least use cases for the Alert Database | Called the "(Historical) Alert Archive" in requirements. Use cases have never been clearly established. (Eric Bellm wrote Alert Database Use Cases and Draft Requirements but it has never been formalized) | DMS-REQ-0094 (1b) | ||
| Specification of the image and image cutout services | In progress by Gregory Dubois-Felsmann and Simon Krughoff. | |||
| Specification of user-facing bulk download services, if any | (data-center-to-data-center bulk transfer is the only part originally captured in the requirements) | |||
| Specification of the user-facing batch services | Is this just "traditional batch" access by ssh-ing to a central batch control node and submitting a traditional job specification (essentially, a request to run a particular command line on a batch worker node)? Or something more API-friendly? A UWS service? Something integrated with notebooks? Something PipelineTask-aware? | |||
| Proposed capability for generation of DOIs for queries | It has been proposed to enable the creation of DOIs (possibly by a third party acting on our behalf) for queries: for query specifications and/or for query results (as lists of Object/Source/image IDs). | DMS-REQ-0291 (1b), Query Repeatability, in the discussion states that the ability to create DOIs for query specifications would be desirable | ||
| Requirements on masking satellite trails | Just masking? Do we need to add model fitting? How will the wings of the trails behave? | None. PST consensus is that we need to add some | Wait til we can get a update from Clare when she is back | |
| Alerts on sub-threshold DIASources | The DPDD says Also, the system will have the ability to measure and alert on a limited (It will be sized for no less than $\sim$10\% of average \DIASource per visit rate) number of sources detected below the nominal threshold for which additional criteria are satisfied. For example, a $transSNR$ = 3 source detection near a gravitational keyhole may be highly significant in assessing the danger posed by a potentially hazardous asteroid. The initial set of criteria will be defined by the start of LSST operations. | DMS-REQ-0270(2), "Faint DIASource Measurements" |
