(in_image, out_image, debug_level=None, status_file=None, rotation_angle=None, ra=None, dec=None, xsize=None, ysize=None)[source] [edit on github]¶ Rotates a FITS image by an arbitrary angle. This module is meant for quick-look only; it is not flux conserving.
Parameters: in_image : str
Input FITS image.
out_image : str
Path to output (rotated) FITS image.
debug_level : int, optional
Print out additional debugging information (level can be 1-3)
status_file : str, optional
Output and errors are written to status_file instead of stdout.
rotation_angle : float, optional
Provide an angle (in degrees) to rotate the image.
ra, dec, xsize : str, optional
Center location and width (in degrees) of output image - optional. By default, entire input image area will be included in output image.
ysize : float, optional
Height (in degrees) of output image, if a new center location and width are provided. Only used if ra, dec, and xsize are specified. Defaults to xsize.
