CatSim and Sky model
Scott
- New interface for opsim outputs (sqlite + new db format)
- Validation on phosim/catsim SED normalization & magnitudes
- Use new interface to implement realistic (sky background) noise in GalSim
- DONE FOR CATALOGS not GALSIM
- Refactor photometry code in catsim (make sure vectorized)
- Implement realistic noise in photometry mixin
- Rework variability model & interaction with catsim
Peter:
- Review ESO papers and out current data. Present plan for sky model (1 wk)
- Review Opsim data structure needs for full-sky calculations (1 wk)
- Develop modules to output SED for each sky component (moon, upper atm, lower atm, etc) (4 wk)
- Compare SED models to all-sky camera observations. (1 wk)

Opsim
Kem
- Rerunning tier 1 with v3.2.1 code
- New reference run
- Push LSE-190 (requirements document)
- Rolling cadence testing and improvements
- Tier 2 runs
- Create solar system proposals (SS Deep drilling, perhaps NEO sweet spot)
- Sensitivity analysis for changing parameters and balancing proposals (with Cathy)
Cathy
- MAF replacing SSTAR
- New reference run
Michael
- Parameter management process (moving to pex config)
- Refactoring review & start refactoring process
- Extend WFD proposal to arbitrary number of visits (instead of just pairs)
- NEXT QUARTER - PUSH TO REFACTOR

- Docker with Opsim etc
- Scheduling workshop -- March 16-20 in Tucson.
Alerts
Darko & Veljko
- communication with comet to do independent testing of format
- testing of speed and comparison of different protocols
- publishing code in sims/DM format
- installing ESPER and testing communication with alertsim
- generating cutouts (phosim/galsim??)
- inclusion any new developement in variable star/galaxy class (i.e. SN...) if feasible..
