[ascl:2410.014] CloudCovErr.jl: Debias fluxes and improve error bar estimates for photometry on structured backgrounds

CloudCovErr.jl debiases fluxes and improves error bar estimates for photometry on top of structured filamentary backgrounds. It first estimates the covariance matrix of the residuals from a previous photometric model and then computes corrections to the estimated flux and flux uncertainties. Using an infilling technique to estimate the background and its uncertainty dramatically improves flux and flux uncertainty estimates for stars in images of fields with significant nebulosity.
