What is python-drizzle
python-drizzle is:
The drizzle library is a Python package for combining dithered images into a single image. This library is derived from code used in drizzlepac. Like drizzlepac, most of the code is implemented in the C language. The biggest change from drizzlepac is that this code passes an array that maps the input to output image into the C code, while the drizzlepac code computes the mapping by using a Python callback. Switching to using an array allowed the code to be greatly simplified.
