Documentation for data product element dpdShearCTICalibration:

This product has been obsoleted by the VIS_CTI PF’s calibration routines.

Originally, it was supposed to provide the set of parameters required for the correction of the CTI effect in the VIS detector CCDs.

Detailed description of the data product

This product has been obsoleted by implementing its functionality in the VIS_CTI PF’s calibration routines.

Its original function was to provide a set of physical parameters that describes the charge transfer inefficiency (CTI) in the Euclid VIS CCD detectors at a specific time in the mission, detemined from the actual Euclid VIS images.

These data can be used by the CTI correction algorithm, in combination with time independent parameters from the MDB, to remove CTI from images observed at a given mission time, and to simulate the effect of CTI at a given mission time.

Refer to the VIS_CTI PF for the current implementation.
