Documentation

katpoint

Coordinate library for the MeerKAT project, providing astronomical coordinate transformations, antenna pointing models, correlator delay models, source flux models and basic source catalogues, using an existing coordinate library such as PyEphem to do the low-level calculations.

Caution

This version of the package (referred to as katpoint 0) is no longer under active development but will still receive bug fixes. It is superceded by katpoint 1, which is hosted by SKAO in a separate repository.
