status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/0hfbtk1om99mfy0o/branch/master?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/scivision/astrometry-azel/branch/master)\n[![PyPi version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/pyversions/astrometry-azel.svg)](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/astrometry-azel)\n[![Downloads](http://pepy.tech/badge/astrometry-azel)](http://pepy.tech/project/astrometry-azel)\n\n# Azimuth/Elevation converter for [Astrometry.net](https://github.com/dstndstn/astrometry.net)\n\nNote: If you want to work with the intermediate steps (source extraction) or photometry, see my AstroPy-based\n[examples](https://github.com/scivision/starscale).\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n[Astrometry.net ≥ 0.67](https://scivision.dev/setting-up-astrometry-net-program/)\nor, use the\n[astrometry.net cloud service](http://nova.astrometry.net/upload).\n\n## Installation\n\n```sh\npython3 -m pip install -e .\n```\n\n### Astrometry.net index files\n\nIf you use astrometry.net on your PC, you may need to install the index\nfiles and setup your config file to point at them:\n\n```sh\ndownloadIndex ~/data\n```\n\n## Command line options\n\n### Pass-through arguments\n\nThe `-a` `--args` command line option allows passing through a variety of parameters to `solve-field`, which underlies this program.\nType `solve-field -h` or `man solve-field` for a brief description of the nearly 100 options available.\n\nBe sure to enclose the options in quotes.\nFor example, to specify that the image field is at least 20 degrees in extent:\n\n```sh\nPlateScale ~/data/myimg.jpg -a \"-L 20\"\n```\n\n\n## Examples\n\nCitizen science images often contain extraneous items in the image field of view.\nThese can very easily break `solve-field`, which is designed for professional science-grade imagery from telescopes and narrow to medium field of view imagers (at least to 50 degree FOV).\nTo mitigate these issues, judicious use of arguments passed to `solve-field` via `--args` is probably a good start.\n\nThe parameters I find most useful for citizen science images include:\n\n```\n-L / --scale-low : lower bound of image scale estimate\n-H / --scale-high : upper bound of image scale estimate\n -d / --depth : number of field objects to look at, or range\n of numbers; 1 is the brightest star, so \"-d 10\" or \"-d 1-10\" mean look\n at the top ten brightest stars only.\n```\n\nFor extraneous regions of the image, try making a copy of the original image that has the offending regions cropped out.\nIf the original image is in a lossy format such as JPEG, consider saving in a lossless format such as PNG after cropping.\n\n### FITS image input\n\nFITS is a legacy file format commonly used in astronomy.\n\n#### Astrometry.net installed on your PC\n\n```sh\nPlateScaleFITS myimg.fits -c 61.2 -149.9 -t 2013-04-02T12:03:23Z --nc --png\n```\ngives NetCDF .nc with az/el ra/dec and PNG plots of the data.\nBoth files contain the same data, just for your convenience.\n\n61.2 -149.9 is your WGS84 coordinates, 2013-04-02T12:03:23Z is UTC time of the picture.\n\n#### wcs.fits from the Astrometry.net WEBSITE\n\nfirst rename wcs.fits to myimg.wcs:\n\n```sh\nPlateScaleFITS myimg.wcs -c 61.2 -149.9 -t 2013-04-02T12:03:23Z --nc --png\n```\n\n### JPG image input\n\nJPG is commonly used by prosumer cameras.\nIt's preferable to use lossless formats for scientific imaging such as JPEG2000 or newer file formats.\n\n\n## Notes\n\n* 2MASS [index](http://broiler.astrometry.net/~dstn/4200/)\n* Tycho
