TABLE  sharksSource

Contains merged sources from detections in sharksDetection.

Prescription for the merging (from RequiredFilters) is: Ks
Bandpass KS comes from deepest Ks tile frame measurements.

Required constraints:
  • Primary key is (sourceID)
  • (frameSetID) references sharksMergeLog(frameSetID)
