Alert production and exposure time

Hi โ€“ In the scenario of 2x15 second exposures, will the two be calibrated and differenced independently for producing alerts, or coadded before?

Hi @JulienPeloton: alerts are only produced from the coadd of the two 15 second snaps.

However, the DPDD says we will report the snap-difference flux for those alerts as well.
