Galaxy Map: Tracks and Dots

[dewline]

I tried searching for Deneb on Kevin Jardine's searchable Galaxy map and got a "track" rather than a "dot". I suspect he's building "probability of error" into this map, and that the "track" in such cases will shrink as the GAIA team send out further data releases over the next few years.
