Epics
VLA Calibration Improvement: Improvements to the flagging heuristics for system and RFI Issues.
RFI heuristics for VLA PI pipeline will be modified - moving toward VLASS or VLASS-derived
bad deformatter flagging should gracefully recover from bad deformatter on refant
Heuristic changes for bad deformatter identification
proper multi-band support
allow different min/max solints per band
allow different bandpass calibrators per band
API plot should appear in weblog
gaintable flagging of final gaintables based on statistics (do within final cals?)
heuristics need to be defined
VLA Spectral Line Calibration: Modifications to the system to support Spectral Line science with the VLA.
per-baseband delay capability should be implemented
ability to use spw-mapping per baseband for final gain calibration in low S/N regime (mixed spw setups)
pipeline should use fluxboot2 results to determine if gain calibration on individual spws will have too low S/N
switched power weights (CASR-476)
mstransform hanning smooth pass through (CASR-357)
VLA Imaging Pipeline: Initial version of VLA Imaging pipeline targeting Ku-band and above
ALMA PI Driven Imaging: Additional options in the pipeline and interface
Improved Download Support: Cutouts for images and data selection for MS downloads
Archive restore workflows should use XML template recipes for VLA and ALMA delivery
templates provided in CASA 5.6.1/2
enable intent selection, target selection, frequency averaging, and time averaging
