ForcedPhotCoaddTask

ForcedPhotCoaddTask performs forced measurement on a co-added image using as a reference catalog detections which were made on coadds in other bands.

Butler datasets

Input datasets

A Coadd_src variant (e.g. deepCoadd_src)
Used as the reference catalog. This is not loaded directly from the provided dataRef; only the patch and tract are used, while the filter is set by the configuration of the references subtask. See lsst.meas.base.references.CoaddSrcReferencesTask.
A Coadd_calexp variant (e.g. deepCoadd_calexp)
Used as the measurement image. Note that this means that lsst.pipe.tasks.multiBand.DetectCoaddSourcesTask must have been run on the image previously.

Ouptut datasets

A Coadd_forced_src variant (e.g. deepCoadd_forced_src)
The resulting measurement catalog.
