skycoor(1) General Commands Manual skycoor(1) Name skycoor - Convert coordinates Synopsis skycoor [-bdgjv] [-n ndec] ra1 dec1 sys1 ... ran decn sysn or skycoor [-vbjg] [-n ndec] @listfile Description skycoor converts coordinates between the J2000, B1950, and galactic coordinate systems, rounding to a specified number of decimal places and printing in degrees or hh:mm:ss.sss dd:mm:ss.sss. Input coordinates may also be in either format, and the system (J2000, B1950, or ga- lactic) may be in upper or lower case. No spaces are allowed within the individual coordinates Options -b B1950 (FK4) output -d RA and Dec output in degrees -e Ecliptic longitude and latitude output -g Galactic longitude and latitude output -i r|d| Input units (r=radians, d=degrees, else hh:mm:sss dd:mm:sss) -j J2000 (FK5) output -n <num> Number of decimal places in output RA seconds -o <num> Offset coordinates by this many arcseconds -p RA and Dec proper motion in milliarcseconds/year -q Output system, including equinox -r <RA> <Dec> <RA> <Dec> Angular separation between two RA, Dec pairs -s Output ra= dec= epoch= radecsys= for sethead -v Print more intermediate information -w Convert RA, Dec equatorial coordinates to x,y,z -x Convert x,y,z equatorial coordinates to RA, Dec -y <epoch> Epoch of coordinates in years Author Doug Mink, SAO (dmink@cfa.harvard.edu) 9 November 2001 WCSTools skycoor(1)
