Modules: Create RMask Mosaic
Namelist Trigger: create_rmask_mosaic
Output Directory Keyword: RMASK_DIR
Default Output Directory: <output_dir>/Rmask
Depends on: Mosaic RMask
Important Notes: This module treats the RMasks as normal images, so co-adding them using this module causes all bit information to be lost in the output mosaic.

PURPOSE
-
This module creates an output mosaic of the Rmask images.
PARAMETER BLOCK
- There is no parameter block for this module
INPUTS
-
There are no user-defined inputs for this module
OUTPUTS
-
RMask Mosaic (mosaic.fits): this single FITS
file is the mosaiced Rmasks, showing all of the outlier pixels
rejected by MOPEX for this dataset. It is written to the Rmask
output directory, so it does not overwrite the primary mosaic output
despite the similar name.
DISCUSSION
The Rmask images are interpolated and coadded into a single mosaic. However, they are treated as regular images, so that all the bit information is lost in the process.| Contents | ~ | Previous: Mosaic Modules - Mosaic MedFilter | ~ | Next: Point Source Extraction (APEX) |
