  Proper motion scaling, more testing. Looking really good.

  Several issues with ATLAS lookup including a sneaky edge condition.

4/19/2021 2:19:30 PM   Bob Denny 
Several days looking for edge condition on a 15' x 15' DSS image of M04 from Salvo Massaro (Ricerca author) by email. Eventually decided to include rectangular search option and try it.

  The catalog checker now has the ability to check each ATLAS magnitude band separately. This is in response to the new logic where the Max/Min mag properties afect what needs to be there. See the help info.

  Add support for the 18-19 and 19-20 mag bands. Make it OK to have missing bands if (a) CatalogMaximumMagnitude never having been set, or (b) if CatalogMaximumMagnitude does ot include the missing bands. If it does encompass a band then the band's files must be there or you get an error.

Test with all 5 available mag bands. Allow fainter bands to be missing if specified CatalogMaximumMagnitude does not require their presence or if it has not been set at all.

            Major improvement for Test10 ATLAS, now the number of catalog stars is reasonable. Prev showed huge number. I should have caught that before. Saving the latest regression test after ATLAS catalog lookup improvements. GEM:1568

  Fix Atlas catalog lookup magnitude limiting and also calculation of the star search region. The CatMagLimits test uncovered both problems.
GEM:1568
3/31/2021 11:41:47 AM   Bob Denny 
ATLAS Failed CatalogMaximumMagnitude/MinimumMagnitude regression test "CatMagLimits" in the process of looking at  the ACP-1004 issue. This test now uses ATLAS. Need to match the "Magnitude" property with the magnitude that is tested for CatMax and CatMin. May not be able to use a calculated "Magnitude"

Problem: 






The large field file D:\dev\astro\pinpoint\TransformTest\AdamTest.fit (write locked to prevent solution info from being writte0, 1.75 "/pix) won't solve with ATLAS, yet solves quickly with UCAC4, GSC, and A2.0. Something ain't right with the catalog star positions.

Gaia DR2 is available. The community is moving in that direction. Up the priority to High now.
