doApCorr

Default
True
Field type

bool Field

Run subtask to apply aperture corrections

doApplyExternalPhotoCalib

Default
False
Field type

bool Field

Whether to apply external photometric calibration via an lsst.afw.image.PhotoCalib object. Uses the externalPhotoCalibName field to determine which calibration to load.

doApplyExternalSkyWcs

Default
False
Field type

bool Field

Whether to apply external astrometric calibration via an lsst.afw.geom.SkyWcs object. Uses externalSkyWcsName field to determine which calibration to load.

doApplyFinalizedPsf

Default
False
Field type

bool Field

Whether to apply finalized psf models and aperture correction map.

doApplySkyCorr

Default
False
Field type

bool Field

Apply sky correction?

doApplyUberCal

Default
False
Field type

bool Field

Apply meas_mosaic ubercal results to input calexps? Deprecated: Deprecated by DM-23352; use doApplyExternalPhotoCalib and doApplyExternalSkyWcs instead

externalPhotoCalibName

Default
'jointcal'
Field type

str ChoiceField (optional)

Choices
'jointcal'

Use jointcal_photoCalib

'fgcm'

Use fgcm_photoCalib

'fgcm_tract'

Use fgcm_tract_photoCalib

None

Field is optional

Type of external PhotoCalib if doApplyExternalPhotoCalib is True. Unused for Gen3 middleware.

externalSkyWcsName

Default
'jointcal'
Field type

str ChoiceField (optional)

Choices
'jointcal'

Use jointcal_wcs

None

Field is optional

Type of external SkyWcs if doApplyExternalSkyWcs is True. Unused for Gen3 middleware.

footprintSource

Default
'transformed'
Field type

str ChoiceField (optional)

Choices
'transformed'

Transform footprints from the reference catalog (downgrades HeavyFootprints).

'psf'

Use the scaled shape of the PSF at the position of each source (does not generate HeavyFootprints).

None

Field is optional

Where to obtain footprints to install in the measurement catalog, prior to measurement.

includePhotoCalibVar

Default
False
Field type

bool Field

Add photometric calibration variance to warp variance plane?

psfFootprintScaling

Default
3.0
Field type

float Field

Scaling factor to apply to the PSF shape when footprintSource=’psf’ (ignored otherwise).

saveLogOutput

Default
True
Field type

bool Field

Flag to enable/disable saving of log output for a task, enabled by default.

saveMetadata

Default
True
Field type

bool Field

Flag to enable/disable metadata saving for a task, enabled by default.

useGlobalExternalPhotoCalib

Default
True
Field type

bool Field

When using doApplyExternalPhotoCalib, use ‘global’ calibrations that are not run per-tract. When False, use per-tract photometric calibration files.

useGlobalExternalSkyWcs

Default
True
Field type

bool Field

When using doApplyExternalSkyWcs, use ‘global’ calibrations that are not run per-tract. When False, use per-tract wcs files.
