Tools are provided for background estimation,\nstar finding, source detection and extraction, aperture photometry,\nPSF photometry, image segmentation, centroids, radial profiles,\nand elliptical isophote fitting. It is a `coordinated package\n\u003chttps://www.astropy.org/affiliated/index.html\u003e`_ of `Astropy`_ and\nintegrates well with other Astropy packages, making it a powerful tool\nfor astronomical image analysis.\n\nPlease see the `online documentation\n\u003chttps://photutils.readthedocs.io\u003e`_ for `installation instructions\n\u003chttps://photutils.readthedocs.io/en/stable/getting_started/install.html\u003e`_ and usage\ninformation.\n\n\nCiting Photutils\n----------------\n\n|Zenodo|\n\nIf you use Photutils for a project that leads to a publication,\nwhether directly or as a dependency of another package, please include\nthe following acknowledgment::\n\n    This research made use of Photutils, an Astropy package for\n    detection and photometry of astronomical sources (Bradley et al.\n    \u003cYEAR\u003e).\n\nwhere (Bradley et al. \u003cYEAR\u003e) is a citation to the `Zenodo record\n\u003chttps://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.596036\u003e`_ of the Photutils\nversion that was used.
