#Outstanding Questions#

Some notes on the remaining survey strategy questions that need to be answered

Footprints

Any final adjustments to the footprint. Changes to the bulge/galactic plane?

Rolling

The baseline uses a half-sky rolling strategy.

  • Should there be rolling in other regions? (dusty plane, bulge, etc)
  • Should we go for an "extra season" of rolling, even if it impacts proper motion?
    • Might be worth considering potential for after 10 years. The astrometry penalty fades if the survey goes longer. OTOH, never get a chance to anchor those early observations again, so maybe better to say we'll do more rolling later if another year gets added.

Magellenic Clouds

Seems like doing something facier with the LMC and SMC would be nice.

Filter Distribution

I would like some more justification for our filter distributions on different parts of the footprint.
