Stellar profile statistics?
« on: 2010 May 05 20:47:19 »
Hi All,

I am new to the forum and like my good friend Bud Guinn I too am in the process of evaluating PI.  I am presently comparing registration results between another tool and PixInsight's StarAlignment module and I wanted to know if there is a module in PI that will give FWHM or HFD statistics for an image?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi,

the topic was recently discussed as being 'desirable' but it hasn't been implemented yet.
Best,

Hi Mike,

Glad to see you come to the forums......I've been reading some of the back posts and found this on FWHM:

It is apparently going to have some form implemented.....and if you look at Carlos's "short List" there are some nice tools in the planning/workup stages.

I uploaded the source code of our implementation, in development. It needs lots of modifications, but is ready for some tests (it compiles and runs well). See at the Software Development subforum.
