Warp - warp (transform) input dataset

astwarp [OPTION...] ASTRdata

Warp is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.14. Warp will warp/transform the input image using an input coordinate matrix. Currently it accepts any general projective mapping (which includes affine mappings as a subset).

For more information, please run any of the following commands. In particular the second contains a very comprehensive explanation of Warp's invocation: expected input(s), output(s), and a full description of all the options.

$ astwarp -P
$ info astwarp
$ info Warp
$ info gnuastro

If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run:

$ info help-gnuastro
