CalibCombineTask

CalibCombineTask scales and coadds the input processed calibration exposures to produce a final master calibration.

Processing summary

CalibCombineTask runs these operations:

1. Determine the scale factors to apply to each input exposure.

2. Apply the scaling to the input exposures.

3. Combine the inputs using statisticsStack.

4. Interpolate NaN pixels.

5. Optionally mask the vignetted region.
