GetCoaddAsTemplateTask

class lsst.ip.diffim.GetCoaddAsTemplateTask(config: Config | None = None, name: str | None = None, parentTask: Task | None = None, log: logging.Logger | lsst.utils.logging.LsstLogAdapter | None = None)

Bases: Task

Subtask to retrieve coadd for use as an image difference template.

This is the default getTemplate Task to be run as a subtask by pipe.tasks.ImageDifferenceTask.

Notes

From the given skymap, the closest tract is selected; multiple tracts are not supported. The assembled template inherits the WCS of the selected skymap tract and the resolution of the template exposures. Overlapping box regions of the input template patches are pixel by pixel copied into the assembled template image. There is no warping or pixel resampling.

Pixels with no overlap of any available input patches are set to nan value and NO_DATA flagged.

Methods Summary

emptyMetadata()	Empty (clear) the metadata for this Task and all sub-Tasks.
getCoaddDatasetName()	Return coadd name for given task config
getFullMetadata()	Get metadata for all tasks.
getFullName()	Get the task name as a hierarchical name including parent task names.
getName()	Get the name of the task.
getOverlapPatchList(exposure, skyMap)	Select the relevant tract and its patches that overlap with the science exposure.
getTaskDict()	Get a dictionary of all tasks as a shallow copy.
makeField(doc)	Make a lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField for this task.
makeSubtask(name, **keyArgs)	Create a subtask as a new instance as the name attribute of this task.
run(tractInfo, patchList, skyCorners, ...[, ...])	Determination of exposure dimensions and copying of pixels from overlapping patch regions.
runQuantum(exposure, butlerQC, skyMapRef, ...)	Gen3 task entry point.
timer(name[, logLevel])	Context manager to log performance data for an arbitrary block of code.

Methods Documentation

emptyMetadata() → None

Empty (clear) the metadata for this Task and all sub-Tasks.

getCoaddDatasetName()

Return coadd name for given task config

Returns:

CoaddDatasetNamestring

TODO: This nearly duplicates a method in CoaddBaseTask (DM-11985)

getFullMetadata() → TaskMetadata

Get metadata for all tasks.

Returns:

metadataTaskMetadata

The keys are the full task name. Values are metadata for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc.

Notes

The returned metadata includes timing information (if @timer.timeMethod is used) and any metadata set by the task. The name of each item consists of the full task name with . replaced by :, followed by . and the name of the item, e.g.:

topLevelTaskName:subtaskName:subsubtaskName.itemName

using : in the full task name disambiguates the rare situation that a task has a subtask and a metadata item with the same name.

getFullName() → str

Get the task name as a hierarchical name including parent task names.

Returns:

fullNamestr

The full name consists of the name of the parent task and each subtask separated by periods. For example:

• The full name of top-level task “top” is simply “top”.

• The full name of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub”.

• The full name of subtask “sub2” of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub.sub2”.

getName() → str

Get the name of the task.

Returns:

taskNamestr

Name of the task.

getFullName

getOverlapPatchList(exposure, skyMap)

Select the relevant tract and its patches that overlap with the science exposure.

Parameters:

exposurelsst.afw.image.Exposure

The science exposure to define the sky region of the template coadd.

skyMaplsst.skymap.BaseSkyMap

SkyMap object that corresponds to the template coadd.

Returns:

resulttuple of

• tractInfolsst.skymap.TractInfo

  The selected tract.

• patchListlist [lsst.skymap.PatchInfo]

  List of all overlap patches of the selected tract.

• skyCornerslist [lsst.geom.SpherePoint]

  Corners of the exposure in the sky in the order given by lsst.geom.Box2D.getCorners.

getTaskDict() → Dict[str, ReferenceType[Task]]

Get a dictionary of all tasks as a shallow copy.

Returns:

taskDictdict

Dictionary containing full task name: task object for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc.

classmethod makeField(doc: str) → ConfigurableField

Make a lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField for this task.

Parameters:

docstr

Help text for the field.

Returns:

configurableFieldlsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField

A ConfigurableField for this task.

Examples

Provides a convenient way to specify this task is a subtask of another task.

Here is an example of use:

class OtherTaskConfig(lsst.pex.config.Config):
    aSubtask = ATaskClass.makeField("brief description of task")

makeSubtask(name: str, **keyArgs: Any) → None

Create a subtask as a new instance as the name attribute of this task.

Parameters:

namestr

Brief name of the subtask.

keyArgs

Extra keyword arguments used to construct the task. The following arguments are automatically provided and cannot be overridden:

• “config”.

• “parentTask”.

Notes

The subtask must be defined by Task.config.name, an instance of ConfigurableField or RegistryField.

run(tractInfo, patchList, skyCorners, availableCoaddRefs, sensorRef=None, visitInfo=None)

Determination of exposure dimensions and copying of pixels from overlapping patch regions.

Parameters:

skyMaplsst.skymap.BaseSkyMap

SkyMap object that corresponds to the template coadd.

tractInfolsst.skymap.TractInfo

The selected tract.

patchListiterable of lsst.skymap.patchInfo.PatchInfo

Patches to consider for making the template exposure.

skyCornerslist [lsst.geom.SpherePoint]

Sky corner coordinates to be covered by the template exposure.

availableCoaddRefsdict [int]

Dictionary of spatially relevant retrieved coadd patches, indexed by their sequential patch number. Values are lsst.daf.butler.DeferredDatasetHandle and .get() is called.

sensorRefNone

Must always be None. Gen2 parameters are no longer used.

visitInfolsst.afw.image.VisitInfo

VisitInfo to make dcr model.

Returns:

templateExposurelsst.afw.image.ExposureF
