| The QUEST Data Processing Software Pipeline (2007) | |||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||
| A program that we call the QUEST Data Processing Software Pipeline has been written to process the large volumes of data produced by the QUEST camera on the Samuel Oschin Schmidt Telescope at the Palomar Observatory. The program carries out both aperture and PSF photometry, combines data from different repeated observations of the same portion of sky, and produces a Master Object Catalog. A rough calibration of the data is carried out. This program, as well as the calibration procedures and quality checks on the output are described.. Comment: 17 pages, 1 table, 8 figures | |||||||||
