Release Notes for Version 1.0.2, Published 2008-01-17


New Cal column in file list
Added a new column in the file list that shows how the image has been calibrated. B = bias corrected, D = dark subtracted, F = flat fielded, - = None
New ADU reading displayed in tabular format
Added a table at the bottom of the measurement details page. It displays ADU values for the selected star in a tabular format
Fix/New Unable to find centroid in some cases
The star finding and centroiding algorithm did fail in some cases due to cosmic rays, hot pixels and other oddities.

Resolution:

The star finding and centroiding algorithm has been totally re-written. It is now based on the more robust algorithm of DAOPHOT (1987PASP...99..191S)
Fix Missing WCS parameters
Even though ACP plate solved an image, WCS parameters was not saved in the FITS header. The effect was that it was not possible to import sequences.

Resolution:

Fixed in the ACP script
Fix Link to releasenotes did not work other than on the top level
Fixed
Fix The date combo box in the filter was based on local server time instead of universal time
Since the images in the list is sorted by UT, this could lead to a mismatch between what was shown in the combo and the list

Resolution:

The dates in the combo box is now based on UT
Fix Performance issue showing the file list
The file list was slow to show for users with a lot of images

Resolution:

Pre-filter the files by checking on file creation date and file name entries, so that as few files as possible is opened to read the FITS header
Fix Star Profile and 3-D Profile Crash
Occured if a star too close to the edgde was selected

Resolution:

Added checks so that values outside of image is truncated to 0
Fix Incorrect FWHM for faint stars close to bright stars
Fixed
