Detailed Description of the Data Product

This is an input product to the MER Pipeline. Tiles partition the sky in a semi-regular grid. The MER pipeline is run in each tile and their output products follow the tile spatial footprint.

The main elements inside this product are:

  • TileUseCase: The use case for which the tile has been defined (e.g. WIDE, DEEP, CALIBRATION).

  • TileFlavour: The tile falvour (e.g. NORMAL, BORDER, SPECIAL)

  • TileIndex: The tile index.

  • Version: The tiling release version.

  • OuterNUNIQIndex: The outer tile area MOC Healpix indices.

  • InnerNUNIQIndex: The inner tile area MOC Healpix indices.

  • OuterSpatialFootprint: The outer tile area spatial footprint. The outer area of a given tile overlaps with other tiles.

  • InnerSpatialFootprint: The inner tile area spatial footprint. The inner area of a given tile does not overlap with other tiles.

  • ExtendedObjects (optional): List of extended objects falling inside the tile area.
