The goal: batch data gathering.
Last updated: Jan21,2020 (on mcs)

Here are some early notes on routines developed to gather and access image calibration data.

 

Here I collect work to finalize an automated XY match routine for the purpose 
of wcs calibration. Images for developing and testing this: 
    20191018T024545.3_acm_sci.fits       Typical acm image. 
    Rsco2043.fits                        ccd-processed V PFC image of the N3379 field. 
    Rsco3226.fits                        ccd-processed R PFC image of the N7479 field.
    Rsco5261.fits                        ccd-processed R PFC image of the N6946 field.

To address these initial images if I am running on sco2019:
/home/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/Rsco2043.fits
/home/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/Rsco3226.fits

/home/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/20191018T024545.3_acm_sci.fits	

To address these initial images if I am running on mcs (as sco):
/home/mcs/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/Rsco2043.fits
/home/mcs/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/Rsco3226.fits

***** GATHER IMAGE PROPERTIES 

% cat list.0
/home/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/20191018T024545.3_acm_sci.fits
/home/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/Rsco2043.fits
/home/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/Rsco3226.fits
/home/sco/AUTO_match_for_wcs/S/Rsco5261.fits
% fitslists list.0  

Makes the files: 
For each line in the input list: 
   fitslists.IMGTYPE     =  image types 
   fitslists.PSDEF       = default plate scales 
   fitslists.RAsexDECsex = RA,DEC of image in sexig format (uniform output format) 
   list.for_mode2        = input file to run dssbase_run_markII


***** GATHER CALIBRATION MATERIAL 

I use the file   fitslists.RAsexDECsex as input

Mode1 = use uniform properties and list of Rra,dec 
% dssbase_run_markII fitslists.RAsexDECsex 2.5 19.0 20.5 none N  

Mode2 = use a custom input file named  list.for_mode2
% dssbase_run_markII list.for_mode2 none none none none list N  

 
Contents of list.for_mode2
Ra, Dec, RadMin  RadMinC  R2maglim   gmaglim 
RadMin = DSS image "radius" in arcminute units 
RadMinC = radius in arcminute units used for phtometry catalogs (USNO-B1.0, PS1) 
R2maglim = faint limit of R2 magnitudes gathered from USNO_B1.0 
gmaglim  = faint limit of g magnitudes gathered from PS1 
 

RESULTS:  The calibration material is written to ./local_red/Store_DSS

/home/sco/tmp/local_red/Store_DSS

To look at an image:

opening ds9 now
Enter any key AFTER ds9 window opens.
% ds9_view dss_RA10c47c49p989DEC+12c34c55p92_297.fits zscale n 2 


***** REVIEW AND SUMMARIZE DSSBASE MATERIAL 
These test cases are run in:   ..../AUTO_match_for_wcs/use_dssbase/Tests_0
% cat S/list.dss
./local_red/Store_DSS/dss_RA01c17c31p268DEC+53c20c40p56_297.fits
./local_red/Store_DSS/dss_RA10c47c49p989DEC+12c34c55p92_1426.fits
./local_red/Store_DSS/dss_RA10c47c49p989DEC+12c34c55p92_297.fits

 
TBD: Need some general routine to build the list.dss file 
 

To process each dssbase set:
Usage: dssbase_review list.dss  
arg1 - file listing the (fullpath) names of the dss fits images
Additional options: 
     -v = print verbose comments 
 --help = view a help document

Extra stuff 
To view the catalog sources for dss_RA19c22c47p570DEC+53c20c40p33_297:
  cdfp2reg.sh dss_RA19c22c47p570DEC+53c20c40p33_297_usno_all.cdfp 5.0 red any any 
**** But this does not appear to work well!    



The detailed goal list as of Jan9,2020: 

   0) Review how dssbase_run_markII runs: 
      dssbase_run_markII 20191018T024545.3_acm_sci.radec 2.5 19.0 21.5 none N 

   1) Have fitslists make an input file for running dss_store_markII

   2) Run dss_store_markII on my two test images in /home/sco/tmp/S listed in list.0
      Document dss_store_markII to show examples of the two basic operational modes
      to gather support data. 

   4) For each image in an input list, identify the appropriate cal material in 
      my  dss_store database. 

   5) Make a tool to easily review the images+cal materia. A two panel ds9 plot 
      with objects overplotted on the DSS image would seem to be good. 
       Working on:   dssbase_review 


Jan30,2019
==========
  0-3 are finished from the above list. Have 4,5 to go. 

    1) dssbase_list to provide basic summary list of StoreDSS contents 
    2) Install dssbase_list call into dssbase_review.
    3) Have dssbase_review show each DSS image with the USNO,PS1 source overplotted.
