<h3>Plate Solving</h3>
|
||||
<p>This module can plate solve images and update FITS header with solution for FITS and XISF images.
|
||||
<b>Profile</b> this set various parameters that affect star extraction and solving.
|
||||
<b>Starting point</b> program will try to automatically determine optimal starting point which helps to speed up solving.
|
||||
You can leave one or both unchecked then it will attempt to do blind solving. If the position or scale is wrong it can actually
|
||||
fail to solve.
|
||||
<b>Solution</b> this section contain resulting solution like RA,DEC coordinates center of image, image field of view, orientation as degrees E of N,
|
||||
image scale in arcseconds per pixel, number of stars extracted and HFR fitting and eccentricity. Then there is log window for debug information from
|
||||
solver.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Then finally there are various action button. Settings button show dialog where you can set path to existing index files or auto download some.
|
||||
Extract button will just extract stars from image and it will show their count, HFR and eccentricity. This action doesn't need index files.
|
||||
Solve button will try to find coordinates of images. Abort button will stop extraction or solving. Update FITS header will update FITS fits keywords
|
||||
with found solution.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In settings dialog you can set path to index files which is by default custom internal one. It also try to locate commonly used path from other
|
||||
programs like KStars for astrometry.net index files.
