astrometry.net

Roweis and I spent all day working on getting SDSS fields to solve in astrometry.net, as well as short-term planning for the project.

Roweis also gave a very nice talk about one of his alogorithms for aligning one-dimensional datasets with variable x and y scalings. We might be able to use it to solve, once and for all, robustly, Burles's perennial problems with automatic arc solutions in spectrograph calibration.
