+""" STWCS
+
+This package provides support for WCS based distortion models and coordinate
+transformation. It relies on PyWCS (based on WCSLIB). It consists of two
+subpackages: updatewcs and wcsutil.
+
+updatewcs performs corrections to the
+basic WCS and includes other distortion infomation in the science files as
+header keywords or file extensions.
+
+Wcsutil provides an HSTWCS object which extends pywcs.WCS object and provides
+HST instrument specific information as well as methods for coordinate
+transformation. wcsutil also provides functions for manipulating alternate WCS
+descriptions in the headers.
