RAIL: Redshift Assessment Infrastructure Layers

RAIL is a flexible software library providing tools to produce at-scale photometric redshift data products, including uncertainties and summary statistics, and stress-test them under realistically complex systematics. A detailed description of RAIL's modular structure is available in the Overview on ReadTheDocs.

RAIL serves as the infrastructure supporting many extragalactic applications of the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) on the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, including Rubin-wide commissioning activities. RAIL was initiated by the Photometric Redshifts (PZ) Working Group (WG) of the LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration (DESC) as a result of the lessons learned from the Data Challenge 1 (DC1) experiment to enable the PZ WG Deliverables in the LSST-DESC Science Roadmap (see Sec. 5.18), aiming to guide the selection and implementation of redshift estimators in DESC analysis pipelines. RAIL is developed and maintained by a diverse team comprising DESC Pipeline Scientists (PSs), international in-kind contributors, LSST Interdisciplinary Collaboration for Computing (LINCC) Frameworks software engineers, and other volunteers, but all are welcome to join the team regardless of LSST data rights.

Installation

Installation instructions are available under Installation on ReadTheDocs.

Contributing

The greatest strength of RAIL is its extensibility; those interested in contributing to RAIL should start by consulting the Contributing guidelines on ReadTheDocs.

Citing RAIL
