Astrometry matcher needs to load reference objects relative to max shift/rotation

    XMLWordPrintable

    Details

      Description

      Currently the catalog of reference objects in the matcher is not loaded on a area relative to the max shift/rotation allowed. For larger shifts/rotations/distortions this could lead to portions of the chip being outside of the loaded reference catalog area and thus unconstrained in future wcs fitting.

      Deliverables: Fix to meas_astrom so that it loads an area of the reference catalog relative to the max shift/rotation.

          Instead of adding more I/O, we should load the catalog once only with an additional buffer in the search radius, where the buffer is equal to the maximum possible offset.

          I agree with Paul Price; the reference object loader already grows the region by some amount to help with this (as per Paul's suggestion). I don't think it's directly tied to the maximum shift distance though---I vaguely remember it being a fixed size in pixels? It might make more sense to just update that logic.

          Found how to add a static padding to the bounding box used to load the reference catalog. Need to tie this padding amount to the maximum allowed shift in the matcher.
