crowdsource | Photometric pipeline for crowded field photometry that simulatenously fits the positions and fluxes of all sources in the image. The pipeline using a smooth background model, estimates a variable PSF across a given CCD image, and uses a CNN to detect and change behavior in the presence of nebulosity. In the newest version used for DECaPS2, an synthetic source injection module was added. | |
CloudCovErr.jl | Postprocessing code using residuals and PSF models from a photometric pipeline to correct the flux and flux uncertainties of reported sources resulting from unmodeled correlations in the backgrond. At a high level, CloudCovErr.jl is interpolating the background behind the source using a method similar to Gaussian process regression. |
