CircleAnnulusPixelRegion

class regions.CircleAnnulusPixelRegion(center, inner_radius, outer_radius, meta=None, visual=None)

Bases: AnnulusPixelRegion

A circular annulus in pixel coordinates.

Parameters:

centerPixCoord

The position of the center of the annulus.

inner_radiusfloat

The inner radius of the annulus in pixels.

outer_radiusfloat

The outer radius of the annulus in pixels.

metaRegionMeta or dict, optional

A dictionary that stores the meta attributes of the region.

visualRegionVisual or dict, optional

A dictionary that stores the visual meta attributes of the region.

Examples

from regions import PixCoord, CircleAnnulusPixelRegion
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1)

reg = CircleAnnulusPixelRegion(PixCoord(x=6, y=6),
                               inner_radius=5.5,
                               outer_radius=8.0)
patch = reg.plot(ax=ax, facecolor='none', edgecolor='red', lw=2,
                 label='Circle Annulus')

ax.legend(handles=(patch,), loc='upper center')
ax.set_xlim(-5, 20)
ax.set_ylim(-5, 20)
ax.set_aspect('equal')

Attributes Documentation

center

The center pixel position as a PixCoord.

inner_radius

The inner radius in pixels as a float.

meta

The meta attributes as a RegionMeta

outer_radius

The outer radius in pixels as a float.

visual

The visual attributes as a RegionVisual.

Methods Documentation

to_sky(wcs)

Return a region defined in sky coordinates.

Parameters:

wcsWCS

The world coordinate system transformation to use to convert from pixels to sky coordinates.

Returns:

sky_regionSkyRegion

The sky region.

to_spherical_sky(wcs=None, include_boundary_distortions=False, discretize_kwargs=None)

Convert to an equivalent spherical SphericalSkyRegion instance.

Parameters:

wcsWCS instance, optional

The world coordinate system transformation to use to convert between sky and pixel coordinates. Required if transforming with boundary distortions (if include_boundary_distortions is True). Ignored if boundary distortions not included.

include_boundary_distortionsbool, optional

If True, accounts for boundary boundary distortions in spherical to planar conversions, by discretizing the boundary and converting the boundary polygon. Default is False, which converts to an equivalent idealized shape.

discretize_kwargsdict, optional

Optional keyword arguments to pass to discretize_boundary() method if including boundary distortions.

Returns:

spherical_sky_regionSphericalSkyRegion

A spherical sky region, with an equivalent shape (if include_boundary_distortions is False), or a discretized polygon of the boundary (if include_boundary_distortions is True).
