==================
general
-------
- Made code style changes due to the new 5.0.3 version of flake8, which noted many
missing white spaces after keywords. [6958]
- pin ``asdf`` above ``2.12.1`` to fix issues encountered within ASDF due to ``jsonschema`` release ``4.10.0`` [6986, 6991]
- remove the ``timeconversion`` package and associated scripts ``set_bary_helio_times``
and ``utc_to_bary``, because they are now part of level-1b SDP code [6996]
ami_analyze
-----------
- Revert Fourier Transform code to original standalone module rather than importing
from the Poppy package, which was recently updated to use a different sign convention.
[6967]
assign_wcs
----------
- Added convenience function ``update_fits_wcsinfo()`` to ``assign_wcs.util``
module to allow easy updating of FITS WCS stored in ``datamodel.meta.wcsinfo``
from ``datamodel``'s GWCS. [6935]
- Populate ``WAVELENGTH`` extension for MIRI LRS slitless data [6964] [7005]
associations
------------
- Refactor Asn_Lv2WFSS to better descriminate what direct images should be used [7010]
cube_build
----------
- Remove trailing dash from IFU cube filenames built from all subchannels.
Also sort subchannels present by inverse alphabetical order to ensure
consistent filename creation across processing runs. [6959]
- Re-wrote c code for NIRSpec dq flagging.[6981]
- For moving target data removed using s_region values in cal files to
determine the size of the cube, instead all the pixels are mapped to
the skip to determine the cube footprint. Also updated the drizzle
code to use the wcs of output frame to account for moving target. [6981]
- Update the WCS ``naxis3`` value when wavelength planes are removed from the
IFUCube due to no valid data. [6976]
- Add a check in the process of building a cube to confirm that there is valid data on the detector. [6998]
- Fix a bug when user changes the spatial scale [7002]
datamodels
----------
- Updated keyword comments/titles in ``datamodels`` schemas to match those in keyword
dictionary. [6941]
- Add the ``P_SUBARR`` keyword to the ``DarkModel`` schema. [6951]
- Add the ``P_READPA`` keyword to the ``ReadnoiseModel`` schema [6973]
- Change name of ``P_READPA`` keyword in datamodel metadata to ``p_readpatt``
to be consistent with other pattern keyword names [7001]
- Add "BACKGROUND" to the list of allowed values for the ``PATTTYPE`` keyword
for MIRI coronagraphic mode [7009]
documentation
-------------
- Update the Error Propagation section to include info for the ``resample`` step
[6994]
- For the `ModelContainer` method `ind_asn_type` directory information
is now properly handled if directory information is included as part
of the filename for `expname`. [6985]
extract_1d
----------
- Update ``int_times`` keywords and copy the ``INT_TIMES`` table extension to SOSS
spectral output (x1d) files [6930]
jump
----
- Added flagging after detected ramp jumps based on two DN thresholds and
two number of groups to flag [6943]
master_background
-----------------
- Fix the use of MRS sigma-clipped background in cases where the ``SRCTYPE``
keyword is not properly set. [6960]
outlier_detection
-----------------
- Improved memory usage during `outlier_detection` by adding ability to work with
input ``ImageModels`` that are saved to disk instead of keeping them in memory.
New parameters were aded to the step to control this functionality. [6904]
- Updated documentation of memory model and new parameters for memory use in
outlier_detection and resample steps. [6983]
- Fix reading of the source_type attribute for NIRSpec IFU data. [6980]
ramp_fitting
------------
- Updating tests due to new behavior in STCAL (spacetelescope/stcal112)
removing NaNs from the rateints product and setting appropriate DQ
flags. [6949]
resample
--------
- Fix a bug in how variance arrays are resampled, due to which the resulting
resampled error map contained an excessive number of zero-valued
pixels. [6954]
- Propagate ``asn.pool_name`` and ``asn.table_name`` through step ModelContainer
for level 2 processing of single input datamodels [6989]
skymatch
--------
- Fix a bug so that computed background values eare subtracted from the image
data when ``subtract=True``. [6934]
transforms
----------
- Updated the NIRISS WFSS transforms from direct to grism image to V4.[6803]
tweakreg
--------
- The ``tweakreg`` step now updates FITS WCS stored in ``datamodel.meta.wcsinfo``
from ``datamodel``'s tweaked GWCS. [6936, 6947, 6955]
- The ``tweakreg`` step now masks both ``NON_SCIENCE`` and ``DO_NOT_USE``
pixels when calculating the source detection theshold and finding
sources. [6940, 6974]
- Allow alignment of a single image (or group) to Gaia while skipping relative
alignment (which needs 2 images) instead of skipping the entire
step. [6938]
- Added support for user-supplied reference catalog for stage 2 of alignment
in the ``tweakreg`` step. This catalog, if provided, will be used instead
of the 'GAIA' catalogs for aligning all input images together as one single
group. [6946]
- Exposed ``tweakreg_catalog`` parameters in ``tweakreg`` [7003]
- exposed additional parameters for absolute astrometry:
``abs_minobj``, ``abs_searchrad``, ``abs_use2dhist``, ``abs_separation``,
``abs_tolerance``, ``abs_fitgeometry``, ``abs_nclip``,
and ``abs_sigma``. [6987]
- Refactored code to work with changes in ``tweakwcs`` version 0.8.0. [7006]
source_catalog
--------------
- Reset input model (units, re-add backgroud) after source_catalog step. [6942]
