VISTA/WFCAM pipelines

summit pipeline: real time DQC verified raw product to Garching

standard pipeline: instrumental signature removal, catalogue production, astrometric and photometric calibration

further processing: generate well sampled PSF, PSF and Sersic profile fitting

advanced pipeline: database driven, deep stacking and mosaicing, merging catalogues, list driven photometry, overlap calibration

Technical challenges

non-linearity calibration and measurement

cross-talk between channels and detectors

image persistence from frame-to-frame

sky level variations on short timescales

rapid variability of OH fringing

seeing variations on short timescales

possible time varying flatfield characteristics

calibration and extinction monitoring

data volume and throughput

robust automatic DQC measures

Page 6: VISTA/WFCAM pipelines

Progress

work package spreadsheets and timelines
