About
=====

The `reproject` package is a Python package to reproject astronomical
images using various techniques via a uniform interface. By
*reprojection*, we mean the re-gridding of images from one world
coordinate system to another (for example changing the pixel resolution,
orientation, coordinate system). Currently, we have implemented
reprojection of celestial images by interpolation (like
`SWARP <http://www.astromatic.net/software/swarp>`__), by the adaptive and
anti-aliased algorithm of `DeForest (2004)
<https://doi.org/10.1023/B:SOLA.0000021743.24248.b0>`_, and by finding the
exact overlap between pixels on the celestial sphere (like `Montage
<http://montage.ipac.caltech.edu/index.html>`__). It can also reproject to/from
HEALPIX projections by relying on the `astropy-healpix
<https://github.com/astropy/astropy-healpix>`__ package.
