  <description>WCS library</description>
  <abstract>
    <p>The AST library provides a comprehensive range of facilities for
      attaching world coordinate systems to astronomical data, for
      retrieving and interpreting that information in a variety of formats,
      including FITS-WCS, and for generating graphical output based on it.</p>
    <p>This library should be of interest to anyone writing
      astronomical applications which need to manipulate coordinate system
      data, especially celestial or spectral coordinate systems. AST
      is portable and environment-independent.</p>
