Description
though not well-defined in the docs, 'plate scale' means (angular scale /
pixel). For psProject and psDeproject, this should be radians / pixel. these
functions are implemented as pixels / angular scale. ie, these lines in
psDeproject:
Remove plate scales
psF64 x = coord->x/projection->Xs;
psF64 y = coord->y/projection->Ys;
should read
Remove plate scales
psF64 x = coord->x*projection->Xs;
psF64 y = coord->y*projection->Ys;
I've updated the SDRS to clarify
