Since a generic term for them (to apply other types of +# surveys/datasets) hasn't been considered yet, we'll stick with the +# `filters' name. But feel free to correct it (or propose a +# suggestion). +# +# If your dataset only has a single filter, or this concept is not +# defined for your type of input dataset, you can ignore this +# variable. +# +# The values can be any string to identify different parts of a survey +# separated by white space characters (for example `f125w f160w' or `J +# H' if you want to specify two filters). +# +# To be clean and also help in readability of the pipeline, it is good +# practice to define a separate `filter-XXXX' variable for each +# survey/dataset, even if they have overlapping filters. +# +# These `filters' are used in the initial downloading of the data and +# it is good practice (for avoiding bugs) to keep the same filter (and +# survey) names in the filenames of the intermediate/output files +# also. This will make sure that the raw input and intermediate/final +# output are exactly related. +filters-survey = a b c d e f g h i |
