astrometric solution for the image #160

Open crawfordsm opened 10 years ago

crawfordsm commented 10 years ago

Calculate the astrometric solution for the images by comparing objects in the field to sources of known position

juliotux commented 9 years ago

Try Astrometry.net.

I've wrote a little wrapper to do this calibration with that program in my own reducing facility. I will upload it in github and post here.

That would be great @juliotux -- thanks for offering to help.

This could be taken care/integrating in with this pull request to astroquery: https://github.com/astropy/astroquery/pull/521

Some useful other projects that should be bootstrapped to be used here: https://github.com/spacetelescope/tweakwcs https://github.com/astropy/astroquery/pull/1163

Another example would be https://github.com/toros-astro/astroalign, which is an astropy affiliated package.

Astrometry.net support has been added to astroquery: https://astroquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/astrometry_net/astrometry_net.html
