This is a minor release that fixes a few bugs, adds some new functionality and adds a new 2D map that tracks the native wavelength bin size and allows a more accurate calculation of effective area and throughput. The highlights from the RELEASE_NOTES file are below.

  • use delta wavelength map to calculated more accurate effective area curves.

  • added delta wavelength 2-D map to keep track of the native wavelength bins.

  • added knotspp keyword to pipeline parameters to control the number of knots
    per Y pixel when using b-splines to fit sky (defaults to 1.25).

  • fixed bug in variance calculation when sky model is used instead of sky obs.

  • fixed bug in kcwi_masksky_ds9.py that swapped image dimensions.

  • use OGIP method for putting long strings into keywords in FITS headers.

  • added geometry file simulator for KCRM (in development).

  • added user contributed software section to the AAAREADME file.
