Astro::Catalog::Query::GSC - A query request to the GSC Catalog
$gsc = new Astro::Catalog::Query::GSC( RA => $ra, Dec => $dec, Radius => $radius, Bright => $magbright, Faint => $magfaint, Sort => $sort_type, Nout => $number_out ); my $catalog = $gsc->querydb();
The module is an object orientated interface to the online Guide Star catalogue at the ESO/ST-ECF archive site.
Stores information about an prospective GSC query and allows the query to be made, returning an Astro::Catalog::GSC::Catalog object.
The object will by default pick up the proxy information from the HTTP_PROXY and NO_PROXY environment variables, see the LWP::UserAgent documentation for details.
See Astro::Catalog::BaseQuery for the catalog-independent methods.
