Base schema for defining Data Release Processing column definitions.

Tables

name description columns
Object Descriptions of static astronomical objects (or the static aspects of variable and slowly-moving objects) detected and measured on coadds. 1254
Source Properties of detections on the single-epoch visit images, performed independently of the Object detections on coadded images. 157
ForcedSource Forced-photometry measurements on individual single-epoch visit images and difference images, based on and linked to the entries in the Object table. Point-source PSF photometry is performed, based on coordinates from a reference band chosen for each Object and reported in the Object.refBand column. 28
DiaSource Properties of transient-object detections on the single-epoch difference images. 96
DiaObject Properties of time-varying astronomical objects based on association of data from one or more spatially-related DiaSource detections on individual single-epoch difference images. 67
ForcedSourceOnDiaObject Point-source forced-photometry measurements on individual single-epoch visit images and difference images, based on and linked to the entries in the DiaObject table. 28
CoaddPatches Static information about the subset of tracts and patches from the standard LSST skymap that apply to coadds in these catalogs 5
Visit Metadata about the pointings of the telescope, largely associated with the boresight of the LSSTComCam focal plane as a whole. 15
VisitDetector Per-detector metadata and metrics associated with each visit 78
SSObject LSST-computed per-object quantities. 80
SSSource LSST-computed per-source quantities. 1::1 relationship with DiaSource. 39
mpc_orbits Table of orbital elements and related information of known (sun-orbiting and unbound) Solar System objects. Replicated from the Minor Planet Center (Postgres) database. This schema will generally closely follow the schema of the upstream table, to allow end-users to rerun queries developed elsewhere on the RSP. 53
current_identifications All single-designations, and all identifications between designations. Always uses primary provisional designation (even for numbered objects). Includes all comets and satellites. Replicated from the Minor Planet Center (Postgres) database. This schema will generally closely follow the schema of the upstream table, to allow end-users to rerun queries developed elsewhere on the RSP. 11
numbered_identifications The numbered identification table contains all the numbered objects (minor planets, comets and natural satellites) with their primary provisional designations. The table is continously updated everytime a new object is numbered. Replicated from the Minor Planet Center (Postgres) database. This schema will generally closely follow the schema of the upstream table, to allow end-users to rerun queries developed elsewhere on the RSP. 11
Parent Descriptions of the parent objects in the deblending hierarchy. 15
ShearObject Descriptions of shear objects detected and measured on coadds with metadetection. 67
IsolatedStarStellarMotions Position, proper motion, and parallax for isolated stars, fit using associated source measurements, with positions for associated reference objects if available. 28
