CpDarkTask

CpDarkTask preprocesses exposures after IsrTask and before the final dark combination.

Processing summary

CpDarkTask runs these operations:

  1. Identifies and masks cosmic rays.

  2. Optionally grows the cosmic ray masks to ensure they do not bleed through into the final combination.
