Features#

class rubin_scheduler.scheduler.features.BaseFeature(**kwargs)[source]#

Bases: ABC

The base class for features. This defines the standard API: a Feature should include a self.feature attribute, which could be a float, bool, or healpix size numpy array, or numpy masked array, and a __call__ method which returns self.feature.

class rubin_scheduler.scheduler.features.BaseSurveyFeature(**kwargs)[source]#

Bases: BaseFeature

Track information relevant to the progress of a survey, using self.feature to hold this information.

Features can track a single piece of information, or keep a map across the sky, or any other piece of information.

Information in self.feature is updated via add_observation or add_observation_array.

abstract add_observation(observation, indx=None, **kwargs)[source]#

Update self.feature based on information in observation. Observations should be ordered in monotonically increasing time.

Parameters:

observation (np.array, (1,N)) – Array of observation information, containing mjd for the time. See rubin_scheduler.scheduler.utils.ObservationArray.
indx (list-like of [int]) – The healpixel indices that the observation overlaps. See rubin_scheduler.utils.HpInLsstFov.

abstract add_observations_array(observations_array, observations_hpid)[source]#

Update self.feature based on information in observations_array and observations_hpid.

This is a method to more rapidly restore the feature to its expected state, by using an array of all previous observations (observations_array) instead looping over the individual observations, as in self.add_observation. The observations array allows rapid calculation of acceptable observations, without considering factors such as which healpix is relevant.

The observations_hpid is a reorganized version of the observations_array, where the array representing each observation is extended to include hpid and recorded multiple times (for each healpixel). The observations_hpid allows rapid calculation of feature values which depend on hpid.

Links between observations_array and observations_hpid can be made using ID.

class rubin_scheduler.scheduler.features.Conditions(nside=32, site='LSST', exptime=30.0, mjd=None, survey_start_mjd=np.float64(60980.5))[source]#

Bases: object

Holds telemetry information, keeping calculated values in sync for self.mjd (such as ra/dec mappings to alt/az).

Incoming values have setters to keep values in sync. Healpix maps are set to the expected (self.nside) resolution.

Unless otherwise noted, all values are assumed to be valid at the time given by self.mjd.

Parameters:

nside (int, optional) – The healpixel nside to set the resolution of attributes. Default of None will use rubin_scheduler.scheduler.utils.set_default_nside.
site (str ('LSST')) – A site name used to create a sims.utils.Site object. For looking up observatory parameters like latitude and longitude.
exptime (float, optional) – The exposure time (seconds) to assume when computing the 5-sigma limiting depth maps stored in Conditions. These maps are used by basis functions, but are not used to calculate expected observation m5 values (such as when exposure time varies). Default 30 seconds.
mjd (float, optional) – The current MJD. Default of None is fine on init - will be updated by telemetry stream.

future_alt_az(mjd)[source]#

Compute the altitude and azimuth for a future time.

Returns:

altitude (np.array) – The altutude of each healpix at MJD (radians)
azimuth (: np.array) – The azimuth of each healpix at MJD (radians)
