Description
While debugging an issue with GWCS coordinates with @bmorris3, I found that one issue is that if an image with a bounding box is used, and if we were to not reset the bounding box to
Noneas we do currently in jadviz, the compass properties will fail in some cases - this is because before this PR, the pixel scale along the N and E directions was determined by adding 1 deg to the RA and Dec, but this is too large as this may then fall outside the image and return NaN (with spacetelescope/gwcs#497).In any case, I think it makes sense to use small angular offsets when trying to do this calculation regardless of whether we decide to not disable the bounding box etc. I don't think there is any downside to using small offsets, and it will be more future-proof.
