... CALSTIS V1.9 Release Notes . ... HST Overview . ... In other words, if the science data value is greater than zero, the error array value should be set to the square root of the science array value; otherwise, the error array value should be set to zero. When computing statistics, a zero error should only be regarded as a bad value if the science value is greater than zero. If both the science and error array values are less than or equal to zero, the signal to noise should be set to zero. ...
