ctapipe is not stable yet, so expect large and rapid changes to structure and functionality as we explore various design choices before the 1.0 release.

TiltedGroundFrame#

class ctapipe.coordinates.ground_frames.TiltedGroundFrame(*args, copy=True, representation_type=None, differential_type=None, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: BaseCoordinateFrame

Tilted ground coordinate frame. The tilted ground coordinate frame is a cartesian system describing the 2 dimensional projected positions of objects in a tilted plane described by pointing_direction Typically this frame will be used for the reconstruction of the shower core position

Frame attributes:

  • pointing_direction

    Alt,Az direction of the tilted reference plane
