Description
How do you retrieve a DVO list of source and guarantee that the list consists solely of unique measures. Dave Monet and I have been finding that using addstar to put together .smf files for a medium-deep field from the 2009/06/03 release and then retrieving the measures results in a small fraction of multiple identical measures being returned.
Is there an option to ensure a unique list or is this a fundamental feature of DVO?
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.

this is not an intentional feature of DVO. mextract should return only one copy for each measure associated with the average objects in the requested region. If the database was built using the addstar -all-matches option, then each measure is matched against all objects within the match radius. this is NOT the default behavior, however.
