Retargetable subtasks¶
astrometer¶
- Default
- lsst.meas.astrom.astrometry.AstrometryTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
astrometry task; used to match sources to reference objects, but not to fit a WCS
decorrelate¶
- Default
- lsst.ip.diffim.imageDecorrelation.DecorrelateALKernelSpatialTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
Decorrelate effects of A&L kernel convolution on image difference, only if doSubtract is True. If this option is enabled, then detection.thresholdValue should be set to 5.0 (rather than the default of 5.5).
detection¶
- Default
- lsst.meas.algorithms.detection.SourceDetectionTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
Low-threshold detection for final measurement
forcedMeasurement¶
- Default
- lsst.meas.base.forcedMeasurement.ForcedMeasurementTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
Subtask to force photometer PVI at diaSource location.
getTemplate¶
- Default
- lsst.ip.diffim.getTemplate.GetCoaddAsTemplateTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
Subtask to retrieve template exposure and sources
measurement¶
- Default
- lsst.ip.diffim.dipoleFitTask.DipoleFitTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
Enable updated dipole fitting method
refObjLoader¶
- Default
- lsst.meas.extensions.astrometryNet.loadAstrometryNetObjects.LoadAstrometryNetObjectsTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
reference object loader
register¶
- Default
- lsst.pipe.tasks.registerImage.RegisterTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
Task to enable image-to-image image registration (warping)
sourceSelector¶
- Default
- lsst.meas.algorithms.objectSizeStarSelector.ObjectSizeStarSelectorTask
- Field type
- ConfigurableField
Source selection algorithm
subtract¶
- Default
- 'al'
- Field type
- Single-selection RegistryField
- Choices
- 'al'
- lsst.ip.diffim.imagePsfMatch.ImagePsfMatchTask
- 'zogy'
- lsst.ip.diffim.zogy.ZogyImagePsfMatchTask
 
Subtraction Algorithm
Configuration fields¶
coaddName¶
- Default
- 'deep'
- Field type
- str- Field
coadd name: typically one of deep, goodSeeing, or dcr
controlStepSize¶
- Default
- 5
- Field type
- int- Field
What step size (every Nth one) to select a control sample from the kernelSources
convolveTemplate¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Which image gets convolved (default = template)
diaSourceMatchRadius¶
- Default
- 0.5
- Field type
- float- Field
Match radius (in arcseconds) for DiaSource to Source association
doAddCalexpBackground¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Add background to calexp before processing it.  Useful as ipDiffim does background matching.
doAddMetrics¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Add columns to the source table to hold analysis metrics?
doDecorrelation¶
- Default
- False
- Field type
- bool- Field
Perform diffim decorrelation to undo pixel correlation due to A&L kernel convolution? If True, also update the diffim PSF.
doForcedMeasurement¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Force photometer diaSource locations on PVI?
doMatchSources¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Match diaSources with input calexp sources and ref catalog sources
doMerge¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Merge positive and negative diaSources with grow radius set by growFootprint
doPreConvolve¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Convolve science image by its PSF before PSF-matching?
doSelectDcrCatalog¶
- Default
- False
- Field type
- bool- Field
Select stars of extreme color as part of the control sample
doSelectVariableCatalog¶
- Default
- False
- Field type
- bool- Field
Select stars that are variable to be part of the control sample
doSpatiallyVarying¶
- Default
- False
- Field type
- bool- Field
If using Zogy or A&L decorrelation, perform these on a grid across the image in order to allow for spatial variations
doUseRegister¶

- 2
- Field type
- int- Field
Grow positive and negative footprints by this amount before merging
kernelSourcesFromRef¶
- Default
- False
- Field type
- bool- Field
Select sources to measure kernel from reference catalog if True, template if false
templateSipOrder¶
- Default
- 2
- Field type
- int- Field
Sip Order for fitting the Template Wcs (default is too high, overfitting)
useGaussianForPreConvolution¶
- Default
- True
- Field type
- bool- Field
Use a simple gaussian PSF model for pre-convolution (else use fit PSF)? Ignored if doPreConvolve false.
