Scan overalp

This analysis uses only scans that are in the working database, i.e. with a quality value of 3 and greater.
I. Scans with no overlap (holes in the sky coverage)

J. Rho has analyzed the scan coverage (last update on Feb. 8, 2001) and concluded that additional scans were requested to fill remaining gaps between scans. Tile re-observations did not fill all gaps. Among the 10 R.A. gaps mentioned in Rho's webpage, 6 are still there. Among the 6 Dec. gaps, 2 remains.
Moreover, 2 new R.A. gaps are found (tiles 307280 and 28605).

We have:
Tile 1 Tile 2 gap type gap size
307280 189101 and 389101 R.A. north 16''
south 4''
7960 89007 R.A. north 9''
