... Up: Description of program searchdup Previous: Program use . Input records are ordered per date of observation, and the list of known (observed) sources is cleared. Each record is compared in position to all the known sources. If the sky distance is less or equal to the specified one, the record is added to the list of observations for that source. If no known sources are within the specified radius, a new source is created, with the coordinates of the observation record. ...
