CCD observations of fields around ecliptic in drift-scan mode
Abstract
CCD observations at the AMC are carried out to create large calibration fields around ecliptic in drift-scan mode since 2002. The size of one strip was 3°x12' or 8000x1094 pixels in 2002 year, and then the length of strip was increased up to 13000 pixels in 2003 year and up to 20000 pixels in 2004 year. The UCAC2 was used as a reference catalogue during the reduction of observations. All the reductions were made using "SURFASTRO" software package, which was developed in our observatory.
