Description

As input to tile, a list of the boundaries for all targetting chunks in the drilling version of the sky. On output from tile, a list of rectangles on the sky which were tiled, where each rectangle is a piece of a targetting chunk.

The target types which are tiled are specified in the keywords primTargetMask and secTargetMask, where the bits are the same as defined for the primTarget and secTarget fields, respectively, in the tsObj file.
