Methods of correcting for overlay error, wherein the methods account for relative offset across the field of exposures of more than one photolithography projection system, as well as systems to perform the methods and apparatus produced therefrom. The methods include defining at least two zones within a field of a mask having substantially similar overlay error values. The methods further include modifying the coordinates of a feature of the mask in response to a correction for the zone to which the feature is mapped, where the correction corresponds to a nominal overlay error value for that zone.
