NAME: optaxis PURPOSE: (one line only) Search for the optical axis in an astronomical image DESCRIPTION: This routine only makes sense if you need a non-linear solution for your astrometry from an image. CATEGORY: Astrometry CALLING SEQUENCE: optaxis,fn,terms,xopt,ypot,raopt,decopt INPUTS: fn - file name of image to analyze This is a valid name that will lead to finding other related files based on this name. The name is typically of the form root.NNN where NNN is a three digit number. In this case, the ref file is NNN.ref and is found in the Refstars directory relative to the current directory. terms - string array with the names of terms to fit (see astterms.pro) OPTIONAL INPUT PARAMETERS: KEYWORD INPUT PARAMETERS: OUTPUTS: xopt - X coordinate of the optical axis in native pixel coordinates. yopt - Y coordinate of the optical axis in native pixel coordinates. raopt - (radians) Right Ascension of the position (xopt,yopt) decopt - (radians) Declination of the position (xopy,yopt) KEYWORD OUTPUT PARAMETERS: COMMON BLOCKS: SIDE EFFECTS: RESTRICTIONS: PROCEDURE: MODIFICATION HISTORY: Written by Marc W.
