Image transformation.

[Johannes Schönberger]

Hi,

You would have to do the following:

1. Setup the transformation object with the appropriate coefficients:

tform = skimage.transform.PolynomialTransform(…)

2. Warp the image:

img_warped = skimage.transform.warp(img, tform, order=INTERP_ORDER)

INTERP_ORDER equals the Interp argument in Poly_2D of IDL.


Let us know if the documentation can be improved in any way.

Regards, Johannes

This normally involves dark frame or noise removal, scaling etc. The last step is to compensate for the telescope pointing, which is generally a translate, rotate and rescale operation.
