SDSSMuNu¶

class pydl.pydlutils.coord.SDSSMuNu(*args, copy=True, representation_type=None, differential_type=None, **kwargs)[source]¶

SDSS Great Circle Coordinates

Parameters:	mu : `Angle` Angle corresponding to longitude measured along a stripe. nu : `Angle` Angle corresponding to latitude measured perpendicular to a stripe.

Notes

Attributes:	stripe SDSS Stripe Number . node Node of the great circle with respect to the celestial equator. In SDSS, this is almost always RA = 95.0 degrees. incl Inclination of the great circle with respect to the celestial equator. phi Counter-clockwise position angle w.r.t. north for an arc in the +nu direction.
