Description: representation of spherical data - C++ shared library
HEALPix is an acronym for Hierarchical Equal Area isoLatitude Pixelization
of a sphere. As suggested in the name, this pixelization produces a
subdivision of a spherical surface in which each pixel covers the same
surface area as every other pixel. It is commonly used to store all-sky
astronomical images, most famously maps of the cosmic microwave background.
.
This package provides the dynamic library for the C++ language implementation
of HEALPix. It can be used interactively via Python bindings available in a
separate package. The C++ library provides input/output, basic
spatial operations such as conversion between spherical coordinates and
HEALPix pixels, and also sophisticated spatial operations such as querying
cones or polygons, as well as upsampling/downsampling, smoothing, and fast
spherical harmonic transforms.
