Description

This is the first mosaic that I created till date. Now I guess I do not need a reducer for the WO ZS61 for a widefield target if I have enough time to capture all panels.

This is data captured nearly 6 months back but I did not have the luck in creating a successful mosaic.

I have tried many attempts before but failed miserably with DSS and PI.

Finally, I got to know the trick when I used the ImagePlateSolver script, GradientMergeMosaic, DNALinearFit and ABE. Creating a synthetic catalog starfield did not help me much.

Here I used NoiseXterminator instead of Topaz Denoise and was quite impressed with the results.
