For each individual pointing and instrument, exposure maps, detection masks and background maps have to
be created. The single steps performed are:
- creation of exposure maps (including vignetting) through eexpmap
- creation of exposure maps (without vignetting, needed for mask generation), also eexpmap
- creation of detection masks, via emask
- source detection (box method) using local background, using eboxdetect
- background maps creation using esplinemap, using the source information obtained in the
former step
