Description-en: HEALPix representation of spherical data - Python interface
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 a Python wrapper around the C++ implementation of
HEALPix.
