the corner coordinates are rough estimates of the circle areas for the scan elements; the size of a scan element (in a certain direction) is taken to be half the distance, from center to center, from a scan element to its nearest neighboring scan element (within the same 2x2 subgrid inside a Field of Regard (FOR)) |
