== Medium Deep U Band (megacam) ==

John looked up on CADC information on MD fields observed in U Band.  Here it is:

This is the number of observations on the field, where there are 7
pointings per field and evidently many dithers.  Our job will be to
put together the dithers into a stack, probably for each lunation,
and then the JTMD stuff can assemble the full-up stacks.  But this
may turn out not to make sense if there are not all 7 pointings per
lunation, so it's all TBD.


== ipp + megacam ==

Gene has stacked these u band before (in eamMC database). I copied his database to 'megacam', and updated the schema.  I've tried stacking by lunation for JT, with mixed results:

 * there are quite a few skycells with bad astrometry
 * all of MD06 has bad astrometry
 * some do not have good coverage - I may need to stack multiple lunations to get it
 * quite a few of the images have bad crosstalk - this is present in the initial images from CADC, but not present in the stacks (does this just get averaged out?)

Things that I need to do to get it working properly
  
 * work on the astrometry - Gene has a few suggestions which I will try to implement
 * make some more stacks (for tests)
   * do I need to filter out the bad astro?
   * stack together a few lunations - does this improve?
   * stack together all lunations - does my stack look similar to Gene's stacks (his is from much older code)
