Description-en: Set of routines for handling the FITS WCS standard
This is a thin wrapper around the high- and mid-level interfaces of
Dr. Mark Calabretta's WCSLIB for handling the World Coordinate System.
.
In addition, there are extensions (written in C) to support Spitzer
Simple Imaging Polynomial (SIP) convention keywords and Paper IV table
lookup distortion.

Note that the development of this package has been stopped in favour of
the astropy package. The astropy package offers a fully compatible
superset of pywcs as module `astropy.wcs`.
