Thanks for input Lino,

That comparison is in the realm of QC catalogs with Mario, using his 
software.
If I'm correct using DR8 and aperture corrections.

Jeffrey, you have KiDS-SDSS comparison working within Astro-WISE, right?
If I'm correct using DR7 and no aperture corrections.
If above is correct: would be good to know if we can update the 
Astro-WISE version to DR8+aperture corrections.

Best wishes, Gijs
