The first thing we need to do is to get rid of
the shift and possibly of the small rotation between the images. To do
that we need to chose one reference for this astrometric procedure. This
reference can be specified in configuration file process_config, the relevant
keyword is REFERENCE.
You must also choose a degree for the 2 dimensional polynomial of the astrometric
re-mapping to the reference, the relevant keyword is DEGREE.
The correct set-up for the data-set of this example is already done in
process_config , but you may find useful to have a look at this file anyway...
To run the registration and interpolation script just type:
./interp.csh
It should take about 1 min. on most computer, may be a little more if you use an old machine...
Once this process
is completed, you can have a look at the log file: ../images2/log_interp2
sigmax: 0.083038 sigmay: 0.079344
ndata: 211 nrest: 184 nfile1.fits
sigmax: 0.094743 sigmay: 0.104723
ndata: 201 nrest: 183 nfile2.fits
sigmax is the residual relevant
to the astrometric transform along the X direction
sigmay is the residual relevant
to the astrometric transform along the Y direction
nrest is
the effective number of stars used to compute this astrometric transform
