Pipeline overview
Note
If you are running the deprecated genericpipeline version of the pipeline (prefactor 3.2 or older), please check the :doc:`old instrunctions page<pipelineoverview_old>`.
Prefactor is organized in three major parts to process LOFAR data:
prefactor_calibrator
- Processes the (amplitude-)calibrator to derive direction-independent corrections. See :ref:`calibrator_pipeline` for details.
prefactor_target
- Transfers the direction-independent corrections to the target and does direction-independent calibration of the target. See :ref:`target_pipeline` for details.
