PACS SW Testing Instrument
Monitoring(Rodighiero)?

• GR continued Testing of DP pipeline on PV and
  SDP data, with particular attention to
  deglitching techniques on scan-maps, with a
  careful treatment of the masks that need to be
  applied on bright sources to avoid flux losses.
• Tuning and combination of photMMT deglitching
  and Second level deglitching provided the best
  results on fast scan maps.
• Contribution to the analysis of calibration PACS
  data, for prime and parallel mode
• GR continued duties activities as Pipeline
  Manager and Instrument Health Manager, with
  weekly shifts of Instrument Monitoring on behalf
  of the PACS ICC at MPE and remote operation from
  home institute.

SPIRE DP Development(Mainetti Vaccari)
New package for all Visualization tools
spire_ia _gui. (WP Owner Gabriele Mainetti)

New layout for DTE to optimize data
visualization Implemented some tweaking based on
users recommendation
4
SPIRE DP Development(Mainetti Vaccari)
New Control Panel all the commands are now
grouped here

Larger plot area and new plotting option Value
of the mask can be overplotted
New arrangement for detector arrays
5
SPIRE DP Development(Mainetti Vaccari)

• New class TimelineSimplePlot (TSP)
• TimelineSimplePlot class allows to create simple
  SPIRE Detector Timeline plots from HIPE command
  line. At least one instance of Timeline-type
  products must already be available in memory to
  launch DTE (e.g. output from pipeline script or
  product loaded from local store).

Gabriele Mainetti is also owner of the
spire_ia_pipeline_common_util WP, containing
miscellaneous tools used in the SPIRE data
reduction pipeline

SPIRE DP CCB UG Activities(Vaccari)

• MV represents SPIRE within the Herschel Data
  Processing (DP) Configuration Control Board (CCB)
  and Users Group (UG) and chairs the SPIRE DP UG
• Assembling and coordinating DP feedback from
  SPIRE consortium members
• Participating into DP CCB telecons and DP UG
  meetings
• Supervising (Mentoring) DP development related to
  a number of WPs

• Development of Herschel DP has benefited from the
  exposure to a larger pool of dedicated users,
  stimulating ICC members to take action on issues
  raised by KPs
• The Herschel DP UG has recently spawned a number
  of DP Interest Groups (IGs), including the PACS
  and SPIRE Large Maps Source Extraction IG
  coordinated by Mattia Vaccari as mentor for the
  related DP WPs
• Following SDP papers and the AO for OT, the
  Herschel DP UG will include new members from the
  IGs, supporting the newly established Herschel
  Users Group
