GPITv Support for Quality flags extension #12

Open dsavransky opened 8 years ago

dsavransky commented 8 years ago

Should add some functionality using the quality extensions now: Mask out any invalid pixels to NaNs would be easiest as an option, or perhaps mark them with overplotted symbols or something like that. Image medianing and so forth operations could respect the bad pixel mask if it is present.

Recovering rm journals for issue:

mperrin: Now you can at least switch to view other extensions. Though this does not yet make use of the DQ extension for flagging as is described above.

mperrin: I'm not sure this actually deserves to be marked as 'high' priority. Do any of you have any opinions on how important it is to have gpitv make careful use of bad pixel flags in the DQ extension? Do we need it to flag bad or saturated pixels on screen in some manner?

mperrin: No one objected or gave a reason this should be high priority, so now it's not.

mperrin: DQ extension can now be used to mark bad pixels on screen. Not yet used for any of the math operations and so forth.

mperrin: I'm just adding Kate to the watch list for this issue since this is also relevant for the DQ extension stuff.

@kfollette @dsavransky I am inclined to close this issue - can either of you think of compelling functionality that we really want gpitv to use the DQ flags for?
