GLIMPSE Saturation Study Using MSX Images
(updated August 28, 2001)
The images below show MSX data in 5 degree long strips.
Diffuse Regions above 30 mJy (with a 2 sec exposure time) are shown in white.
Point sources above 30 mJy are shown with white squares.
These show regions that may be more affected by instrumental effects such as banding,
non-linearity, soft-saturation, etc..
All plots are Galactic Latitude -1 deg to +1 deg.
