The quality of the images was validated according to the procedure described by Adams et al. 2022. The direction-dependent calibration allowed us to achieve a significant improvement of the quality of the individual images compared to the automatic pipeline without DD-calibration. This is illustrated in the Figure below.
The fraction of compound-beam images that pass the quality validation increased from 40 % using the default pipeline to 98 % with the new pipeline.
The completeness and reliability of the corresponding catalogs are estimated as described by Kutkin et al. (2022, 2023).
