Description
What & Why?
The pointing accuracy of Dish type radio antennas changes as a function of the position in the sky at which they are pointing. To compensate for this, regular Global Pointing Model observations will be conducted during which multiple targets across the sky are observed using the 5-point reference pointing scan type. The corrections for each target at each position in the sky inform the Global Pointing Model of the MID telescope.
