initial_direction_finding

sunkit_image.trace.initial_direction_finding(image, xstart, ystart, nlen)

Finds the initial angle of the loop at the starting point.

Parameters:

• image (numpy.ndarray) – Image in which the loops are being detected.

• xstart (int) – The x coordinates of the starting point of the loop.

• ystart (int) – The y coordinates of the starting point of the loop.

• nlen (int) – The length of the guiding segment.

Returns:

float – The angle of the starting point of the loop.
