Data Fields
struct novas_frame	frame
	The observer place and time for which the transform is valid.

enum novas_reference_system	from_system
	The original coordinate system.

struct novas_matrix	matrix
	Transformation matrix elements.

enum novas_reference_system	to_system
	The final coordinate system.

Detailed Description

A transformation between two astronomical coordinate systems for the same observer location and time.

This allows for more elegant, generic, and efficient coordinate transformations than the low-level NOVAS functions.

The transformation can be (should be) initialized via novas_make_transform(), or via novas_invert_transform().

See also: novas_make_transform(), novas_invert_transform(), NOVAS_TRANSFORM_INIT; novas_transform_vector(), novas_transform_sky_pos()
