Detailed description of the data product

This output product is a file describing the footprint of the survey in mangle format, for a given band out of the N observed bands (Euclid/EXT). It includes a base mangle mask described as genericVectorMask file describing the footprint for the survey in partial HEALPix format, for a given observed band/instrument (Euclid/EXT), and a raw description with polygons of the envelope of the sky covered is added as well to ease future queries on the product (see spatialFootprint).

The weights associated to the mangle polygon in the ascii file are in between 0 and 1, describing the fraction of pixel observed with 1: not in footprint, not observed and 0: in footprint, fully observed. Associated to the file is a xml descriptor with parameters:

  1. DATE-OBS: start of observation with format ‘yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sss’.

  2. DATE-END: end of observation with format ‘yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sss’.

  3. INSTRUM: name of the instrument

  4. TELESCOP: name of the telescope

  5. FILTER: name of the filter

  6. TILEINDEX: identifier of the MER Tile (-1 if multiple Tiles)

  7. SKYPATCH_ID: identifier of the skyPatch if merging multiple MER Tiles (TBD)

and basic software parameters:

  1. CREATOR: software used to create the product

  2. VERSION: version of software
