Python library for source extraction and photometry

 SEP makes the core algorithms of Source Extractor available as a
 library of stand-alone functions and classes. These operate
 directly on in-memory arrays (no FITS files or configuration files).
 The code is derived from the Source Extractor code base (written in
 C) and aims to produce results compatible with Source Extractor
 whenever possible.
 .
 This Python module that wraps the C library in a Pythonic API. The
 Python wrapper operates on NumPy arrays.
