2022 Priorities
Primary Development Priorities
Calibration and Flagging
Enhanced DTS issue identification and flagging (CASR-563)
Possible RFI flagging refinements
- per baseline flagging
- combine targetflag heuristics into checkflag
- Change hifv_targetflag to flag target data using a .flagtargetstemplate.txt
- Add plots to PI pipeline statwt weblog
- Only show post statwt plots
- show box plots for weights per spw, per antenna, and per scan
- ID places where statwt goes sideways
Per-baseband delay solutions (PIPE-670)
Spectral window mapping for gain calibration (PIPE-671)
enables phase calibration if not enough S/N due to faint calibrator
Antenna position corrections in a post-observation time window (CASR-556)
Gain table flagging extensions
Ripple detection (bad switch problem) (PIPEREQ-11)
Gain outlier detection (PIPEREQ-10)
Fluxboot gain solution flagging (PIPEREQ-9)
Fluxboot QA metric adjustments (PIPEREQ-8)
Enable data weights to be determined from switched power (CASR-476)
Use MS tool hanning smoothing to enable per spw hanning smoothing (CASR-523; PIPE-672)
Spectral window mapping for gain calibration (PIPE-671)
enables phase calibration if not enough S/N on narrow spws
RFI flagging on uv-grid (CASR-496)
avoids flagging of bright spectral lines
Cont.dat interpretation to treat non-specified spws as continuum-only
Design and set up independent spectral line calibration recipe that could be used by end users or triggered using recalibration workflow
Imaging
Detect mosaicked fields and perform joint deconvolution with mosaic gridder
Enable basic cube imaging
Stretch Priorities
- Generalize hifv_circfeedpolcal for all bands
Enable experimental P-band calibration
Enable pipeline to use two MS files to perform continuum on one and spectral line optimized calibration on the other when spectral lines are a science goal set in PST
Define requirements for the continuum imaging pipeline to use outlier fields to remove effects of bright sources rather than using large images
