IMMATCH -- Package of Image Matching Tasks

The immatch package contains a set of routines for registering, matching the
point spread functions, and matching the intensity scales of two or more
images using a variety of techniques. The majority of these tasks are new
and are being made available in order to invite user testing and comments
prior to distribution as part of the IRAF core system. A few of the tasks
are modified versions of tasks already in the system. These modifications
were necessary to properly support the new tasks. The immatch package
is very much a work in progress and new tasks will be added in the future.
The current contents of the package are:

      ccmap -- Compute image plate solutions using celestial coordinate lists 
     cctran -- Transform from x-y to ra-dec and vice versa using plate solutions
   ccsetwcs -- Create an image wcs from the plate solution
     geomap -- Compute geometric transforms using matched x-y lists
    geotran -- Geometrically transform a list of 1-D or 2-D images
  geoxytran -- Geometrically transform a list of x-y coordinate lists
   linmatch -- Match the linear intensity scales of 1-D abd 2-D images
 linxymatch -- Generate matched x-y lists using coordinate lists
   psfmatch -- Match the point-spread functions of 1-D and 2-D images
     slalib -- Starlink positional astronomy  library
   skyctran -- Transform lists from one celestial coordinate system to another
     skymap -- Compute geometric transforms using image celestial coordinates
 skyxymatch -- Generate matched x-y lists using image celestial coordinates
  sregister -- Register 1-D or 2-D images using image celestial coordinates
    wcscopy -- Copy the wcs of one image to that of another
   wcsctran -- Transform between iraf wcs using image wcs information
     wcsmap -- Compute geometric transforms using image wcs information
 wcsxymatch -- Generate matched x-y lists using image wcs information
