As I mentioned in a previous post I am planning an all-sky mosaic. I know that APP has some really good mosaic capabilities - for narrow field mosaics - but my project has two curveballs:
(1) Will APP be able to handle landscape features on the horizon? Also clouds in the sky - especially clouds that move between images?
(2) Will APP be able to handle the defects of widefield lenses - namely distortion of the frame and distortion (actually enlongation) of star images near the corners?
I will be using a 24mm lens - maybe I should crop the images to remove the star distortions. Maybe I should reproject the images into a more rectilinear shape.
