Step Arguments

The saturation step has one optional argument:

--n_pix_grow_sat (integer, default=1)

The distance to use when growing saturation flag values to neighboring pixels, in order to account for charge migration (spilling). The total region size is 2*n_pix_grow_sat+1 pixels, centered on the primary pixel.

--use_readpatt (boolean, default=True)

Use information about the readout pattern for grouped data to perform additional checks to find data that saturates mid-group. This can be important for finding extremely bright cosmic rays that saturate in group 2.
