If hupdate = no the image edits are listed but not +implemented. + +If \fIwcsedit\fR = yes then either an existing DSS WCS is converted to +a FITS WCS or an approximate FITS WCS is added to the input image. If +\fIimsurveys\fR is undefined the current WCS status and WCS information +is read from the image surveys configuration file \fIimdb\fR. If +\fIimsurveys\fR is undefined the WCS status and coordinate information +are read from \fIwcs\fR parameter and the default WCS parameter set +\fIawcspars\fR. In both cases the quantities of interest are the values, +units, and coordinates system of the reference point \fIwxref\fR, \fIwyref\fR, +\fIwraref\fR, \fIwdecref\fR, \fIwraunits\fR, \fIwdecunits\fR, and +\fIwsystem\fR, and the image scale, orientation, and projection information +\fIwxmag\fR, \fIwymag\fR, \fIwxrot\fR, \fIwyrot\fR, and \fIwproj\fR. For +more information on how these quantities are defined in the image surveys +configuration file or the awcspars parameter set type "help imsurveys" and / or +"help awcspars". + +If \fIhdredit\fR = yes then a standard set of keyword equal value +pairs are added to the image headers. If \fIimsurveys\fR is defined +the standard keyword name and value pairs are read from the image surveys +configuration file. If \fIimsurveys\fR is undefined they are read from +the standard image keywords parameter set \fIaimpars\fR. In both cases the +parameters divide into two groups, +those concerned with locating stars in the image and computing accurate +pixel centers \fIedatamin\fR, \fIedatamax\fR, \fIegain\fR, and \fIerdnoise\fR, +and those required for transforming mean place coordinates to observed +plate coordinates, +\fIobservat\fR, \fIesitelng\fR, \fIesitelat\fR, \fIesitealt\fR, \fIesitetz\fR, +\fIemjdobs\fR, \fIewavlen\fR, \fIetemp\fR, and \fIepress\fR. New keyword +values are only added to the header if keywords of the same name do not +already exist, and if appropriate values for the keywords exists, i.e. +"INDEF" valued parameters will not be added to the header. + +If \fIupdate\fR = yes then the fIawcspars\fR, +and \fIaimpars\fR parameter sets are updated at task termination. If +\fIverbose\fR = yes then detailed status reports are issued as the task +executes. + +.ih +EXAMPLES + +1.
