Centroids (`photutils.centroids`)#

Subpackage containing tools for centroiding sources.

Functions#

`centroid_1dg`(data[, error, mask])	Calculate the centroid of a 2D array by fitting 1D Gaussians to the marginal `x` and `y` distributions of the array.
`centroid_2dg`(data[, error, mask])	Calculate the centroid of a 2D array by fitting a 2D Gaussian to the array.
`centroid_com`(data[, mask])	Calculate the centroid of an array as the flux-weighted center of mass derived from image moments.
`centroid_quadratic`(data[, mask, ...])	Calculate the centroid of a 2D array by fitting a 2D quadratic polynomial.
`centroid_sources`(data, xpos, ypos[, ...])	Calculate the centroid of sources at the defined positions in a 2D array using a specified centroid function.

Class to calculate the centroid of a 2D array by fitting a 2D quadratic polynomial.
