Step Arguments

The align_refs step has the following optional arguments.

--median_box_length (integer, default=3)

The box size to use when replacing bad pixels with the median in a surrounding box.

--bad_bits (string, default=”DO_NOT_USE”)

The DQ bit values from the input image DQ arrays that should be considered bad and replaced with the median in a surrounding box. For example, setting to "OUTLIER, SATURATED" (or equivalently "16, 2" or "18") will treat all pixels flagged as OUTLIER or SATURATED as bad, while setting to "" or None will treat all pixels as good and omit any bad pixel replacement.
