High precision and accuracy astrometric image solving from a guess

Project description

thuban

High precision astrometric image solving from a guess.

[!WARNING] This package is not yet ready for production usage.

To-do

  • make a basic pointing refinement algorithm
  • make a CLI for distortion and pointing solving simultaneously
  • make a distortion only solving step
  • try the distortion solving with a different size to see if that improves the pointing
  • make a pointing report that includes all the helpful info at solving results
  • evaluate quality of fit and report
  • move steps from the CLI to a function for cleaner code
  • allow passing in or using the existing distortion model instead of blanking it everytime
  • check that all images have the same format upon loading
  • avoid loading all the images at the beginning to preserve RAM
  • allow solving by passing in a single filename instead of just a directory
  • add more tests
  • document all functions
  • make a documentation website
