TABLE  RequiredDiffImage

Contains details of default difference image products curated in the archive.

This table contains details of all the default difference image products that
are curated within the archive as part of the requirements for a
particular survey. For example, the UKIDSS GPS requires general H2-K
difference imaging to be done in the appropriate survey regions.
The difference imaging curation task implemented within the archive uses the
information in this table to produce the required products for a given
programme when invoked as part of archive operations.

Required constraints:
  • Primary key is (programmeID,productID)
  • (programmeID) references Programme(programmeID)
  • (filter1) references Filter(filterID)
  • (filter2) references Filter(filterID)n
