---|---|---|---|
Description: Units_of_Pixel_Scale_Angular is a unit in which pixel scale is measured in an angular context. Pixel scale, in terms of angular units, indicates the angular size of a pixel typically expressed as pixel per unit angle (e.g., 0.125 pixel/deg , 0.5 pixel/arcsec). | |||
Unit Id | |||
pixel/arcsec | pixel/arcsec is an abbreviation for pixel per arcsecond, which is a unit of angular pixel scale (3600 arcsec = 1 degree). | ||
pixel/deg | pixel/deg is an abbreviation for pixel per degree, which is a unit of angular pixel scale (1 degree = pi/180 radians, so that a full circle comprises 360 degrees). | ||
pixel/radian | pixel/radian is an abbreviation for pixel per radian, which is a unit of angular pixel scale (a full circle comprises 2*pi radians). |
