It is distributed in very portable and modular C source code as part of the WCSTools package. |
imcat | This program find all of the sources in any of the catalogs listed above which are found in the area bounded by an image with a world coordinate system defined in its header. |
rgsc | This program for searching the Hubble Space Telescope Guide Star Catalog CDROMs is written in Fortran and C. Binaries are distributed for Solaris and Digital Unix; source code is available on request. It is mostly superceded by scat. |
star | This program for searching ASCII and formatted binary star catalogs is written in Fortran and C. SAO, IRAS, and PPM catalogs formatted for this program are available. Binary executable files are distributed for Solaris and Digital Unix; source code is available on request.. It is mostly superceded by scat. |
