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.

project_to_ground#

ctapipe.coordinates.project_to_ground(tilt_system)[source]#

Project position in the tilted system onto the ground. This is needed as the standard transformation will return the 3d position of the tilted frame. This projection may ultimately be the standard use case so may be implemented in the tilted to ground transformation

Parameters:
tilt_system: `astropy.coordinates.SkyCoord`

coordinate in the the tilted ground system

Returns:
Projection of tilted system onto the ground (GroundSystem)
