codecov

A package for astronomical image processing and analysis. We aim to provide a simple interface for common tasks like opening fits files, including images and tables.

To Do list


  • Read/Writing modifying header.
  • Read/Writing modifying image data.
  • Documentation
  • Read/Writing bin table data.
  • Keep CARD comment
  • Support of multiple HDU, fits extensions (in progress, only the header is parsed)
  • WCS operations
  • General astronomy operations

Docs

For now we are investing on programming the features to add complete docs after. There are multiple examples in the tests.
