... The sky background can contribute significant Poisson noise in broad and medium band filters, and must be taken into account during noise calculations. The actual sky brightness depends on the heliocentric ecliptic coordinates (latitude and longitude) in a manner summarized in Table 6.3 . ... For many targets LOW-SKY will have minimal impact on the observing efficiency. ... Table 6.4 shows approximate sky count rates for the WFC and PC1 for filters with significant sky count rates. ...
