Astro::FITS::HdrTrans module
----------------------------
What is it?
-----------
Astro::FITS::HdrTrans and associated sub-classes are tools for translating
instrument-specific FITS headers into generically named headers.
Requirements
------------
The Astro::FITS::HdrTrans module has minimal requirements on other
modules; only Carp and Time::Piece are required. Instrument-specific
sub-classes of Astro::FITS::HdrTrans may require other modules to be
installed, depending on the transformations those sub-classes make.
As an example, the translation sub-class for IRIS2 (an imaging
spectrometer used at the Anglo-Australian Telescope) requires
Math::Trig in order to do zenith distance to airmass translations.
Adding Subclasses
-----------------
Adding subclasses to do translations for other instruments should
be fairly straight-forward. Detailed documentation can be found
in the Astro::FITS::HdrTrans::Base class.
Where can I get it?
-------------------
The package is available from CPAN <http://www.cpan.org/>.
Installation
------------
Installation is automated using the Module::Build library
% perl Build.PL
% ./Build
% ./Build test
% ./Build install
Authors
-------
The module was written by Brad Cavanagh <[email protected]> and
Tim Jenness <[email protected]> of the Joint Astronomy Centre
(JAC) in Hawaii, and Malcolm J. Currie <[email protected]> of the Rutherford
Appleton Laboratory (RAL) and the JAC.
