Postprocess a stacked pawprint for HAWKI data. Form a filled tile and photometrically and astrometrically calibrate the tiled image Optionally nebulise the stacked images before source detection The program accepts the following files in the SOF: Tag Description BASIC\_CALIBRATED\_SCI A set of processed images from a jitter sequence\ BASIC\_VAR\_MAP A variance map for each sequence image\ MASTER\_CONF A master confidence map for the jitter sequence\ PHOTCAL\_TAB A photometric calibration table\ MASTER\_2MASS\_CATALOGUE\_ASTROM A master 2MASS index for astrometry or\ MASTER\_PPMXL\_CATALOGUE\_ASTROM A master PPMXL index for astrometry or\ MASTER\_LOCAL\_CATALOGUE\_ASTROM A master local astrometric FITS file\ MASTER\_2MASS\_CATALOGUE\_PHOTOM A master 2MASS index for photometry or\ MASTER\_PPMXL\_CATALOGUE\_PHOTOM A master PPMXL index photometry or\ MASTER\_LOCAL\_CATALOGUE\_PHOTOM A master local photometric FITS file\ MATCHSTD\_PHOTOM A master photometric matched stds catalogue (optional)\ SCHLEGEL\_MAP\_NORTH Northern Schlegel Map\ SCHLEGEL\_MAP\_SOUTH Southern Schlegel Map All of the above are required unless specified otherwise. The astrometricand photometric files are not required if these can be obtained fromthe CDS using the --cdssearch options ## OPTIONS - **--nebulise** *\* Nebulise the stacks before object detection?
