3. Generate an output file containing a URL list of the TPFs associated with each of the channels and quarters
- To do this next step, I use k2mosaic. We will first generate a list of all the TPFs required for a particular quarter and channel. It's important that these data live somewhere where there is (a) lots of space --- we need about 5 TB per cluster --- and (b) in directories that are well-organized. I create a directory called NGC6798 that lives on my external HD. Within NGC6798 I make a directory called k2mosaic. That is where all the k2mosaic output will live. Within k2mosaic I create a folder for each of the quarters and corresponding channels.
- Quarter 0, Channel 50 is located in the following folder: /Volumes/Seagate_Expansion/NGC6819/k2mosaic/q00ch50
- Similarly, Quarter 3, Channel 34 is therefore located in the following folder: /Volumes/Seagate_Expansion/NGC6819/k2mosaic/q03ch34
- One by one, cd into the folder corresponding to quarter and channel and generate the tpf list containing the URL for each of the TPFs associated with that quarter and channel. This can be done using k2mosaic by performing the following command: k2mosaic tpflist Q0 50 > tpflist.out
