Updates to Shapelet.fitImage functionality

Open rmjarvis opened this issue 11 years ago • 1 comments

The ShapeletFitImage function currently still takes a pixel scale parameter for the WCS. It should be updated to take an arbitrary Jacobian matrix to describe the WCS. It's not a very hard change, but it was big enough that I didn't want to do it as part of #364, which had already grown enormous in its scope.

While I'm at it, I think it would be nice to flesh out the Shapelet stuff in GalSim a bit more to bring over some of the other shapelet code I have. Things like fitting the deconvolved shape given a shapelet vector for the effective PSF, and maybe even fitting one solution using multiple images.

It's all code I already have, so it would be nice to incorporate it into GalSim.

That would be great! The original set of routines in PSFCorr.cpp included deconvolution via shapelets, but we had to remove it because it relied on some NR code - and it did not have simultaneous fitting, anyway.
