The minimap mode has been recommended by the PHT instrument team in order
to obtain accurate photometry of point sources thereby minimizing the
cirrus confusion. In addition, the C100 minimap can be used to obtain
small images of small extended sources. The original recommendation was
to step 1 pixel width (46") in Y and Z direction in a 3x3 raster with c100.
Recently, R. Laureijs found in his programme that stepping 69" (that is
1.5 pixel width) is very advantageous to obtain high quality high resolution
maps of small extended sources. This is due to the improved sampling of 1/2
pixel and the redundancy (overlap) which is good enough to perform accurate
flat fielding of the 9 C100 pixels. In order to decide whether a source
is extended it is necessary to obtain a map of a known point source,
which can be compared with a similar map of an unknown source.

For this calibration measurement we observe the calibration star HR6705
at 60 (C_60) and 100 micron (C_100) in order to get an reliable point source
template which can also be used for comparison with theoretical predictions.
