A portable computer program called SUBPLATE was developed to implement the sub-plate overlap technique proposed by Taff (1989 AJ 358, 359). The main point of the technique is to divide the plate into smaller pieces and then to overlap them, each with a minimum number of reference stars to solve for a linear solution.
