Offline plate solving

Catalogs, Automatic, Guided, and Blind

These guides describe product and validation workflows. Software access, beta applications and diagnostic uploads are not currently open. Pricing is undecided.

Prepare a catalog

Select a local AXSC catalog compatible with the build. Solving requires a separate catalog file; photos do not need to be uploaded. Re-select the file if its path is unavailable.

Choose hints and inspect the result

Use Guided when coordinates or field of view are known, or Blind/Automatic with fewer hints. Inspect residuals, confidence, field of view, and overlays. A failed solve must not be treated as valid WCS.
