Zusammenfassung:A method of controlling a lithographic apparatus to manufacture a plurality of devices on a substrate, the method comprising: obtaining a parameter map representing a parameter variation across the substrate by measuring the parameter at a plurality of points on the substrate; decomposing the parameter map into a plurality of components, including a first parameter map component representing parameter variations associated with the device pattern and one or more further parameter map components representing other parameter variations; determining a scale factor to correct for errors in measurement of the parameter; and controlling the lithographic apparatus using the parameter map and scale factor to apply a device pattern at multiple locations across the substrate.
