+A mosaic represents a particular set of challenges when determining an
+astrometric solution.  There is substantial degeneracy between the
+astrometric terms which describe the transformationfrom the chip to
+the focal plane, and the tranformation from the focal plane to the
+tangent plane, in the presence of distortion.  The degeneracy can be
+broken by examining the distortion component in its effect on the
+gradient of the sources position residuals rather than in the source
+positions themselves.  The following function determines the position
+residual, in the tangent plane, as a function of position in the focal
+plane, for a collection of raw measurements and matched reference
+stars.  The configuration data must include the bin size over which
+the gradient is measured (keyword: \code{ASTROM_GRAD_BOX}).  The
+function returns an array of \code{pmAstromGradient} structures,
+defined below.

+The gradient set measured above can be fitted with a pair of 2D
