3.1.1. addDQ

Add a DQ extension to the input AstroData objects.

The value of a pixel in the DQ extension will be the sum of the following: (0=good, 1=bad pixel (found in bad pixel mask), 2=pixel is in the non-linear regime, 4=pixel is saturated). This primitive will trim the BPM to match the input AstroData object(s).

3.1.1.1. Parameters

adinputslist of AstroData: Input AstroData objects with no DQ extension.
suffix: str: suffix to be added to output files
static_bpm: str: Name of bad pixel mask (“default” -> use default from look-up table) If set to None, no static_bpm will be added.
user_bpm: str: Name of the bad pixel mask created by the user from flats and darks. It is an optional BPM that can be added to the static one.
illum_mask: bool: add illumination mask?
