26 May 2006: UFTI Flatfielding Test Data. We want to use UFTI test data to get a better handle on the flat field properties of the array/telescope system, and investigate the various contributions

17 Jan 2006: Tests on real WFCAM data (the UDS test data, see Section 6) showed that a more detailed model was required. ... 7 Crowded field tests. Tests have been carried out using data covering M17 in order to test the performance in more crowded fields.

2 Nov 2006: In the following tests we have used the 2MASS PSC as the basis for all the astrometry. ... After a few tests it became clear that not only had we got the sign wrong in the predicted value for the distortion (easy to do) but also the magnitude of

26 May 2006: Tests were carried out using only LAS data, where the images are quite sparse, and the results were just as noisy, thus eliminating this explanation. ... In these tests, it was found that using the simple model and the decay characteristics measured above

26 Jan 2006: These patterns are still being assessed, although a series of tests using a higher order r5 term showed some improvement. ... A series of tests using the UKIRT FS observations to monitor the WFCAM 2MASS calibration are being carried out, with very
