ccdproc

Prompted by @saraogaz in astropy-dev mailing list asking about ccmap equivalent, I am wondering if there is already something like that in ccdproc. It seems to me that this would be a logical place for such a thing to exist if it does at all.

CCMAP itself hasn't been on our wish list for awhile but finding astrometric solutions to an image has been. It's been long on the to-do list although some progress has been made on it in the astroquery package (although I think that PR was never completed).

See #160 and also https://github.com/astropy/astroquery/pull/521

Any updates on this? Looks like the linked stuff hasn't been touched in a while. I wanted to double check there weren't some other solutions in other places...

Short answer, no. I'd really like astrometry.net to work in astroquery, so if I have time this week I'll work on that.

Hmm, that PR in astroquery is very much abandoned. However, if anyone is keen on picking it up, it shouldn't be too far from being finished.

Yeah, I've had it open in a browser tab for ~1.5 months. Looks very close to done.
