Notes and Examples

For the SURVEY=cmx m33 tile (TILEID=80615) tile and all the SURVEY=sv1 tiles (except TILEID=80971-80976, the dc3r2 ones), proper-motion correction was applied at the fiberassign design step; thus the following columns can have different values than in the desitarget products: TARGET_RA, TARGET_DEC, REF_EPOCH, PLATE_RA, PLATE_DEC, and PLATE_REF_EPOCH.
