Description
meas_extensions_photometryKron provides a measurement algorithm which is returns the flux in an elliptical aperture as defined by Kron (1980): the Kron radius is measured as the moment within an (elliptical) aperture of six times the (adaptive) moment, and the Kron flux is measured within an (elliptical) aperture of twice the Kron radius.
This package is currently available, and can be built using lsstsw. I propose including it in lsst_distrib, so that it can be installed more easily and will automatically be included in CI.
The package has no dependencies which are not currently satisfied within lsst_distrib.
I've seen no objections to this. As part of the implementation, we'll make sure there's some minimal documentation.
