Dear COADD-QC-TEAM, dear Nicola as lead of QC catalog team.<br>
<br>
We have the following QC checks in place:<br>
<ul>
<li class="level1">
<div class="li"> DONE: visual inspection (using QualityWISE), to
identify processing issues <br>
</div>
</li>
<li class="level1">
<div class="li"> DONE?/EMH: PSF difference between
CoaddedRegriddedFrame and input ReducedScienceFrames: see
verify method in <a
href="http://www.astro-wise.org/viewvc/awe/astro/main/RegriddedFrame.py?view=markup&sortby=file&sortdir=down"
class="urlextern"
title="http://www.astro-wise.org/viewvc/awe/astro/main/RegriddedFrame.py?view=markup&sortby=file&sortdir=down"
rel="nofollow"> RegriddedFrame.py</a></div>
</li>
<li class="level1">
<div class="li"> DONE: consistency check on input
RegriddedFrames</div>
</li>
</ul>
These are either in the general verify method for
CoaddedRegriddedFrames in <a
href="http://www.astro-wise.org/viewvc/awe/astro/main/RegriddedFrame.py?view=markup&sortby=file&sortdir=down"
class="urlextern"
title="http://www.astro-wise.org/viewvc/awe/astro/main/RegriddedFrame.py?view=markup&sortby=file&sortdir=down"
rel="nofollow"> RegriddedFrame.py</a> or the KiDS-INT-DR2 specific
code: <a
href="http://www.astro-wise.org/viewvc/awe/astro/experimental/kids/qcCoadd_INTDR2.py?view=markup&sortby=date"
class="urlextern"
title="http://www.astro-wise.org/viewvc/awe/astro/experimental/kids/qcCoadd_INTDR2.py?view=markup&sortby=date"
rel="nofollow">qcCoadd_INTDR2.py</a><br>
<br>
I propose as next step deciding which additional checks are needed
for KiDS-INT-DR2 at coadd level:<br>
* AG+GVK+team: completion of QC coadd checks, using <a
href="http://wiki.astro-wise.org/projects:kids:survey_task_teams:coadds#quality_criteria_for_coaddedregriddedframes"
class="urlextern"
title="http://wiki.astro-wise.org/projects:kids:survey_task_teams:coadds#quality_criteria_for_coaddedregriddedframes"
rel="nofollow"> QC criteria coadd</a> as starting point.<br>
<br>
For this we need to define the scope of QC coadd: where does QC
coadd end and QC catalog begin. I think a clear division is to leave
to QC catalog team als those QC checks that can only be done well
with good catalogs. So also those that check rather the coadd
quality then catalog quality. QC coadd lead Lino + Gijs can be
liaison to QC catalog team to help the QC catalog team in those
cases. <br>
<br>
What does QC coadd team deliver for KiDS-INT-DR2?: <br>
My proposal:<br>
1.the QualityWISE page: those we have in hand, they come for free
with Astro-WISE coadd production. Input on improving the plots
presented there is welcome.<br>
2. A set of additional plots and/or numbers per coadd that
complements the QualityWISE page with KiDS-INT-DR2 specific stuff.
This can be either presented as one page per coadd or gallery of a
certain plot for the 52 coadds. Danny is looking into this. I see
this set as an experiment from which we can choose how to develop
QualityWISE further after KiDS team meeting in December. <br>
<br>
Discussion has opened: all input welcomed (keep emailing
