Quality Assessment Plots
The DAP produces a number of quality assessment plots, ranging from those specific to the results of a given analysis module for a single observation to plots of global properties for all observations analyzed for a given MPL/DR. The QA plots are limited in many ways, but the following is a description of the current QA plots produced.
Warning
The file location and description below is specific to the MaNGA data. However, similar QA plots can be made for non-MaNGA data; see Execution.
