wcs_r_setup

Creates a revised wcs_setup.out file. This OTW script is run at the end of the ds9_rwcs.


% % wcs_r_setup.sh stars_o.reg stars_c_rd.reg stars_c_xy.reg all

arg1 - original (Ra,Dec in degrees) regions file
arg2 - corrected (Ra,Dec in degrees) regions file
arg3 - corrected X,Y regions file\n"
arg4 - methods (all or moved)
The last argument (arg4) is the one that determines the method used to collect the revised star list. Generally, we have a WCS solution in the input image that will let us match sources pretty well over the entire image. When we are use all of the matched sources to reformulate the fitting set with are using the "all" method. If the original (wcs_getA) fit was so bad that we'll miss lots of stars being matched in the corners, etc...., then we may want to move a set of star markers around manually with the ds9 cursor and then use ONLY these moved stars to reformulate the fitting set. This is referred to as the "moved" method. We nearly always prefer to used arg4 = "all".
