Bluejeans: 107541143
Agenda:
- Discussion of histograms. See my use case note in the 9/16 meeting minutes
- Discuss Xiuquin’s meeting with DM folks.
- Visualization “Concept of Operations” document, which was assigned to @jjt and @marshall during the IPAC visit to SLAC (PW protected link). I think that the “Draft Description of User Interaction”, which I posted last February, can be uset as a start.
Notes:
@tony_johnson’s summary of IPAC-SLAC meeting:
-
New version of Firefly (and documentation) has been installed. See Tony’s notes below.
-
The control room layout was discussed. In particular, is the camera control room different from the LSST ctl room? The purpose of the ConOps document is to distinguish between Camera-specific interactions and the more generic display interface.
-
Future changes to Python interface. If data manipulation is needed for each command, a new process is needed, to get the data. To reduce overhead, it might pay to keep an in-memory version of the FITS file. A project for the future.
-
@gpdf suggested that we add a “back” button to the “display latest” mode, in case an image is superseded before the user is able to pause the diaplay.
-
Tatiana showed some examples of the new interface.examples.
-
When will new features be implemented? Basic functionality exists now. Not sure - one month? few months?
-
Firefly documentation issue: @tatianag will post an improvement to the github/FF doc. There is a more efficient way to pass properties, which makes step 6 unnecessary.
