Detailed description of the data product

The VIS processing function provides a CalibratedQuadFrame product consisting of 3 FITS files by exposure: a calibrated VIS individual exposure, and the corresponding Background map and Weight MAP.

A PSF file is also provided. This corresponds to the PSF calibrated on a data set and is the same for all frames.

Some data cannot be used for scientific purposes, or can only be used with certain precautions. This includes data affected by, for example, stray light, X-rays or guidance errors. For selected useful data, some metrics are included in the .xml file that follows each FITS file. See Vis Analysis Results Product for how to interpret these metrics.

Calibrated VIS individual exposure

The calibrated VIS individual exposure is a multi-extension FITS file containing 3 extensions per quadrant, one for pixel data, one for the associated RMS map and one for the associated Flagmap, to make 432 extensions for a full 144 quadrants which constitutes an exposure. Pixel data is 32-bit floating point format.

Each extension contains the keyword EXTNAME, which will be <detector id>.SCI, <detector id>.RMS or <detector id>.FLG for Science, RMS map or Flagmap. The “detector id” describes the extension following the scheme given on VIS FPA ICD (EUCL-SAP-ICD-6-001).

The different extensions may appear in any order. In all extensions, pixels are delivered at the native pixel scale and all extensions have the same pixel scale and size.

SCI extension

The SCI extension contains calibrated pixel data for each of the VIS instrument quadrants. The individual images contain both an astrometric and photometric solution written in the FITS header. No flux scaling is applied, but the results of the photometric solution computed by VIS is written in the FITS header keywords. The astrometric solution is described as a PV projection. Images are not resampled and are delivered at the native VIS pixel scale (this means of course that instrument optical distortion is still present). The images are not background subtracted but a background map is provided as a FITS file with the same pixel size as the individual images.

For the calculation of the astrometric solution, we use WCSFITS. It uses a distortion model of the FPA to compute the astrometrical solution (pointing and position angle). The pointing position is the centre of rotation of the FOV and is defined as the centre of the VIS FPA.

RMS extension

The RMS map contains the noise at each pixel in the corresponding Science image, expressed as the absolute standard deviation and are the ones to use for photometry.

Currently to meet the requirements set by other PFs, RMS maps are simply generated directly from the output image using the BACKGROUND_RMS SExtractor checkimage (Bertin & Arnouts 1996). These maps are generated by computing the standard deviation of pixels in a sliding window on the input images, after removing objects.

Note that these RMS maps only contain a noise contribution from the background, and do not contain a contribution from the Poisson noise of each individual source.

FLG extension

The Flagmap data format is defined in the data model and presented in Vis Flag Map Product in a human readable format.

Weight Map

When combining multiple dithered exposures from separate detectors with gaps it becomes important to assign a “confidence” to each detector pixel so that overlapping exposures can be combined and the noise level at each pixel can be correctly estimated. This is the product to use as a weightmap when combining individual exposures into stacks.

Internally, the VIS processing function uses relative “weight maps”, which are defined as \(w_j \propto \frac{1}{{\sigma_{j}}^{2}}\), where \(\sigma_j\) is the standard deviation (or “RMS”) of the \(j_{th}\) pixel.

At the end it corespond to the small scale flat (PRNU) with all pixels with invalid flag set to 0. This corespond only to the background, not the object.
