This figure shows the orientation of maps for project 180-06 as a function of LST start time: |
This project aims to make maps at 100 positions in a 10 x 10 grid. Each position has been given its own "source" name in the database: UD##XXXX, where ## indicates the wobbler throw that should be used for that position (either 36 or 48) and XXXX indicates its location in the 10 x 10 grid (e.g., UD36+5+5). The following figure shows all 100 positions in the field. "Sources" that have already been observed show mini-maps indicating the directions of their subscans (thin lines). "Sources" that have not yet been observed still show the numbers that are part of their names. attachment:1046progress-2006-12-10.gif If you are about to start a new map for project 180-06, (1) Note the current LST. (2) Determine the approximate subscan direction that will result for a map starting at the current LST, by referring to the figure *below*. (3) Find a high-priority position in the figure *above* whose neighbors have been mapped (if at all) with different subscan directions from a map starting at the current LST. (Neighbors with perpendicular subscan directions are ideal.) (4) Determine the "source" name for this position: UD + wobbler throw (from top of column) + grid position (from cell). This is the "source" you should map following the instructions in the obsform. |

If you are about to start a new map for project 180-06, note the orientation and subscan direction for the current LST. Next, find a high-priority "source" in the following figure whose neighbors have been mapped (if at all) with *different* subscan directions. This is the "source" you should observe now. attachment:1046progress-2006-12-10.gif |
The Co-PIs will try to update the top figure on a daily basis, but in case we miss a day you should still make sure that the "source" you have chosen has not already been observed. We thank you for your hard work! |
