Missing tiles are skipped until the downloader has produced them. Fully
contained tiles skip per-star source-triangle containment; partial tiles retain
that exact check. For 2MASS apparent-solid-angle amplitudes, start with
`--exposure 1e15`; use PNG (`make ENABLE_PNG=1`) for substantially smaller
single-frame output than binary PPM.
`--exposure 1e15`; PNG is the default output format. If libpng is unavailable,
use the PPM fallback with `make clean && make ENABLE_PNG=0` and a `.ppm`
output path.
The two existing fields imply roughly 15--17 GiB of cleaned CSV for the full
PSC. Their raw response rows imply 70--75 GiB if every source appeared once.
