Detailed description of the data product

The VIS PF provides stacked images which individual VIS dither is combined using SWarp. By default, the option COMBINE TYPE=CLIPPED is used (D. Gruen et al 2014).

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

A PSF is also computed as an internal product for SExtractor fitting like the spread model.

Calibrated VIS stacked image

The calibrated stacked image is a multiple extension FITS file with 3 extension : Science, RMS map, Flag map.

The tangent point (Calabretta & Greisen 2002) of the output image is computed by SWarp software with the option “CENTER_TYPE all”. Therefore, the size of this image and its tangent point is for the moment not pre-defined, and can vary based on the coverage of the input dithers. The output tangent point is approximately equal to the geometric average of the tangent point of the input images.

The input data products (SCI, RMS, and FLG) are resampled to constant pixel scale over the focal plane of 0.1” / pixel. The images are background subtracted with a sliding window using the following parameters BACK_SIZE=64 and BACK_FILTERSIZE=3.

SCI extension

The fluxes in each pixel of the SCI extension are rescaled to have a zero point of 23.9 AB magnitudes with an effective exposure time of 1s.

RMS extension

As for the calibrated VIS individual images, the RMS map contains standard deviation at each pixel in the corresponding Science image, expressed as the absolute standard deviation.

FLG extension

For the stacked images, the value of the Flagmap is 0 for good data, 1 otherwise. Flags are stored as eight-bit unsigned integers.
