LDM-240 Goals for FY15
The LDM-240 goals specified for FY15 under the 02C.04 WBS are:
WBS 02C.04.01 (App framework for catalogs)
- Development in support of use cases utilizing catalog data
WBS 02C.04.03 (PSF Estimation)
- Improved PSF estimation and interpolation (Kriging interpolation)
- Integration of wavefront estimation code into the DM stack
Suggested replanning
"Improved PSF estimation and interpolation (Kriging interpolation)" moved to FY17 and replaced with "Estimation of PSF variation across the full focal plane (single solution)" from FY17.
WBS 02C.04.06 (Object Characterization)
Greedy optimizer for multi-epoch data
- Multi-epoch extended source fits
- Micro-optimized MultiFit model evaluation code
Suggested replanning
Astrometric and Photometric Calibration Pipelines (02C.03.07 & 02C.03.08) are currently assigned to UW in FY18+. DRP will likely need a subset of this functionality much sooner than that. Perhaps we can "adopt" part of those tasks, or encourage the UW folks to reprioritize so that the they are addressed sooner.
Summary of W15 Epics
NB "done" totals reflect only stories marked as done; not awarding "partial credit" for in review or similar.
Totals are based on mental arithmetic (so are only approximately correct), calculated on 22 Jan.
WBS 02C.04.01 (App framework for catalogs)
WBS definition
The "Measurement *" epics defined here would be more appropriate under 02C.04.06 (object characterization). Should discuss with Kevin Long/Jeff Kantor if & how to best address that.
Measurement - Aperture Corrections DM-85 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Not meaningfully addressed in W15.
Estimated 31 SPs; planned 31 SPs; done 0 SPs.
This work is well defined & planned.
This is under a DRP WBS, but most of the work is (apparently?) to be done by UW/Krughoff/Owen.
Candidate to roll over to S15.
Measurement - Calibration and Ingest DM-1074 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Aim to have this finished in W15.
Estimated 20 SPs; planning incomplete, currently at 11 SPs; done 1 SP.
afw::table - finish interface transition DM-1099 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Aim to have this finished in W15.
Estimate 36 SPs; planned 36 SPs; done 8 SPs.
Measurement - Convert old algorithms DM-1100 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Aim to have this finished in W15.
Estimated 31 SPs; planned 50 SPs; done 20 SPs.
Measurement - Finish framework overhaul DM-1101 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Aim to have this finished in W15.
Estimated 51 SPs; planned 74 SPs; done 45 SPs.
afw - Footprint improvements DM-1107 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Unlikely to be finished in W15.
Estimated 30 SPs; planned 53; done 15.
Measurement - Design MultiFit Plugin Framework DM-1109 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Candidate to roll over to S15.
Estimated 20 SPs; unplanned; done 0.
NB, implementation of this plugin framework to be scheduled in S15 after design.
WBS 02C.04.03 (PSF Estimation)
No work planned in this cycle.
WBS 02C.04.06 (Object Characterization)
Work on ideas for the deblender DM-1382 - Getting issue details... STATUS
This epic needs refocus and refactoring.
Not estimated; planned 140 SPs; done 0.
Suggestion: split into three epics ("Preparatory infrastructure"; "Investigate deblending in one band followed by using the resulting templates in all bands"; "Investigate deblending in one band followed by linear fits of models"). Roll all of them over to S15.
Other outstanding work
There are some Getting issues... in JIRA with no defined epic. They cannot therefore be scheduled for EVM. Most of these are relatively minor bug fixes or feature requests; those with SP estimates have no more than 4 SPs per issue. (That said, 35 issues at 2 SPs per issue is still 70 SPs, which is a major epic's worth of work).
We should consider if we can either add some of these to existing epics or combine them to create new ones.
HSC "Synergy"
HSC work which is ready for porting to LSST
Multi-band processing? Others?
HSC work which will be carried out in S15 with direct relevance to LSST

Outline S15 epics
WBS 02C.04.01 (App framework for catalogs)

To Do
- Agree plan for DM-85 with UW group
- Agree plan for DM-1102 with SQuaRE
- Agree plan for astrometry/photometry pipelines with UW group
- Discuss shifting measurement epics to 02C.04.06 with Jeff/Kevin
- What work will be addressed by HSC during S15 that we can claim partial credit for?
