Sequence Generator Pro 2.2 released with mosaic add on
Hello to all fellow SGP users, i am sure you have recently gotten a email updating you on the new release and update procedures for SGP's 2.2 release.
The exciting addition to SGP in this release is the addition (purchased) of an mosiac and framing planner.
I just purchased this planner to have a look as mosaics are somthing i have been interested in but not yet attempted. It looks very intuitive, literally fill in some object and CCD data and then if your connected to the internet it downloads a sky view of the section of sky around the object (user defined eg 5degrees).
It is then as simple as drag and click around the sections of sky you wish to image and it pre plans the imaging sequence to suit with a user definable percentage overlap.
In the SGP planner window these different frames then appear (and can be saved if you are going to a remote location) with the only extra work being the image intergration setup as all positional data is automatically generated.
Been cloudy here tonight and i have packed up for Astrofest but hope to test this out once i get up there and will report back ... til then here are some screen shots of the system.
