Plugin that would detect moving sources

Question during the workshop. I guess a plugin could be able to handle that?

We are talking about multiple exposures, right? If this is the case, then it depends in what regime. For sources that do not move over more than a few pixels over the whole range of images, this can readily be done using a proper-motion fit in the FlexibleModelFitting module. For objects that move much more, one should consider a convnet on multi-epoch images (this is what I have been doing so far). This could be implemented in SE++ but first we would have to manage multiple detection images. And then we would have to manage multiple positions throughout measurement images. All in all, personally I think it is much more easy to handle this outside of SE++.
