Module FilterTableCalculator

source code

Calculates constants for the Filter table. Based on the filter curve properties and already calibrated catalogues. These constants are the 50% cut-on and cut-offs, the A/E(B-V) extinction values, the VegaToAB and 1s magnitude limit in Vega. The output is written to a file, not the database, because some of the numbers in the DB come from external sources and should not be overwritten.
