WCSBase

class astropy.wcs.WCSBase(*sip, cpdis, wcsprm, det2im*)

Bases: object

Wcs objects amalgamate basic WCS (as provided by wcslib), with SIP and distortion paper operations.

To perform all distortion corrections and WCS transformation, use all_pix2world.

Parameters:

sipSip object or python:None

cpdis(2,) python:tuple of DistortionLookupTable or python:None

wcsprmWcsprm

det2im(2,) python:tuple of DistortionLookupTable or python:None

Attributes Summary

det2im1	A DistortionLookupTable object for detector to image plane correction in the x-axis.
det2im2	A DistortionLookupTable object for detector to image plane correction in the y-axis.
sip	Get/set the Sip object for performing SIP distortion correction.
wcs	A Wcsprm object to perform the basic wcslib WCS transformation.
