Left: "Conventional" image produced by combining the IRAS survey scans (angular resolution ∼5').
Right: High resolution (∼1.5') image produced by applying the maximum entropy method

Fig. 2. 60 µm emission of the SW region of the Small Magellanic Cloud.
Above left: image produced by combining the survey scans (∼5').
Below left: image produced by applying MemSys5 to the survey data (∼1.5').
Above right: image produced by applying MemSys5 to a combined data set of survey and Pointed Observation data (∼1').
Below right: image produced by combining the IRAS survey and the PO data of only the two small 60 µm detectors (∼1.4'; the black polygons represent areas without data coverage)
