Examples of the new ASTROWISE manual masking implemented for KiDS DR5. The figure shows a heavily contaminated field, caused by scattered light from Formalhaut (αPsA), a visible-magnitude star (V = 1.16) that is ~1.5 deg from the centre of the focal plane. The left column shows the tile before masking, while the right column shows the tile after application of the manual and PULECENELLA masks. The upper row shows the tile at native resolution, while the bottom row shows the tile after smoothing with a 5″ Gaussian filter.
