Default output resolution for reproject.thumbnails is half of the input map

Open axf295 opened this issue 10 months ago • 1 comments

If I use reproject.thumbnails(imap,pos,size_deg) I would expect to have an output map of size_deg x size_deg with resolution equal to the input map.

but by default if res is not specified it uses input map res / 2

@amaurea can confirm but I think this is expected behavior as its safer to interpolate to a finer geometry.
