<pre>Hello all,</pre>

<pre>My question is about the existence of a routine able to perform pattern-matching of</pre>

<pre>XY-coordinate lists. Up to now, I've been using astronomical software</pre>

<pre>such as IRAF. In particular I used IRAF/immatchx/xyxymatch routine which is an IRAF</pre>

<pre>implementation of the E.Groth's algorithm (described in Groth E.J., Astronomical Journal 91, 5, 1986).</pre>

<pre>This approach is based on a similar triangles technique, which is more</pre>

<pre>robust to scale changes, shift and rotation than the usual minimum distance criteria.</pre>

<pre></pre>

<pre>Do you know some IDL-code which performs one of these algorithms, either triangles or</pre>

<pre>minimum distance?&nbsp;

</pre>

<pre>Thanks in advance,</pre>

<pre>Octavi.
