Re: [SciPy-user] FITS images with header-supplied axes?
Hi, if you find a solution, please let me know. On my side I had to rewrite some dummy routines to use the CRVAL/CDELT/NAXIS etc headers to do the axes plotting. I am using "extent=", to have a direct access to the coordinates in the plotting (imshow). But of course you first have to use the figure size, and then adapt the format (with some basic calculation) of your image/plot so that the pixels follow the right axis ratio. Eric
Is there any plotting routine in scipy / matplotlib that can plot a fits image with correct WCS coordinates on the axes? I know pyfits can load fits files, astLib has routines to interpret header coordinates, and I think you can make the axes different using matplotlib transforms, but is there anything that puts all three together currently available?
Thanks, Adam
