Dear CATALOG-QC-TEAM,<br>
<br>
The QC for KiDS catalogs falls in 2 parts: single-band and 4-band
QC.<br>
<br>
* SINGLE-BAND SOURCELISTS<br>
<br>
We have the following QC checks in place in KiDS-CAT (thanks!), is
my understanding:<br>
<ul>
<li class="level1">
<div class="li"> FWHM vs SNR. DONE in KiDS-CAT. NN+HB can send
algorithm/code to HB so Hugo can check implementation in AWE.</div>
</li>
<li class="level1">
<div class="li"> star/galaxy separation. DONE in KiDS-CAT.
NN+HB can send algorithm/code to HB so Hugo can check
implementation in AWE. </div>
</li>
<li class="level1">
<div class="li"> limiting magnitude. FLB can send a matlab
(actually octave script) performing the analysis of the S/N
vs. 2''mag diagram to HB Hugo Buddelmeijer who adds algorithm
to <a

</li>
</ul>
The NN+HB / FLB+HB indicate that I think it will be useful to
implement those in Astro-WISE acting upon the ingested KiDS-CAT
sourcelists. Nicola and Francesco can send the relevant info/code to
Hugo Buddelmeijer who coordinates the implementation in Astro-WISE.<br>
<br>
The following QC checks are planned for implementation:<br>

the KiDS-INT-DR2 catalogs. They use a different sextractor
run. Should we do something about this? </div>

insight now how to do this.</div>

Summing these up: the CATALOG-QC-TEAM should verify we are not
missing crucial basic ones:<br>
<ul>
<li class="level1">
<div class="li"> CATALOG-QC-TEAM: CFHTLS at Terapix had its
final release (T0007). One product is <a

title="http://terapix.iap.fr/cplt/T0007/table_syn_T0007.html"
rel="nofollow"> synoptic table of CFHTLS</a>, giving access
to QC plots/numbers. Which ones do you think are important at
this stage for KiDS QC? </div>
</li>
</ul>
What does CATALOG-QC-TEAM deliver for KiDS-INT-DR2 single-band
sourcelists?: <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 catalog 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 single-band sourcelists. Danny is looking
into how we can implement such a presentation. I see this set as an
experiment from which we can choose how to develop QualityWISE for
single-band sourcelists further after KiDS team meeting in December.
<br>
<br>
Discussion has opened: all input welcomed (keep emailing <a
class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:kids@astro-wise.org">kids@astro-wise.org</a>!)<br>
<br>
Above information and more is contained at our wiki spot for
CATALOG-QC-KIDS-INT-DR2 for single-bands:<br>

<br>
Regarding 4-BAND CATALOGS: I propose to leave that effort as a
separate task. Details will follow in another email. <br>
