astropy 5.0

Slices of this object load the corresponding section of an image array from the underlying FITS file on disk, and applies any BSCALE/BZERO factors.

Section slices cannot be assigned to, and modifications to a section are not saved back to the underlying file.

See the astropy:data-sections section of the Astropy documentation for more details.

Image section.

Examples

See :

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
