Read and plot an image from a FITS file
=======================================

This example opens an image stored in a FITS file and displays it to the screen.

This example uses `astropy.utils.data` to download the file, `astropy.io.fits` to open
the file, and `matplotlib.pyplot` to display the image.

# Set up matplotlib and use a nicer set of plot parameters

# Download the example FITS files used by this example:

from astropy.utils.data import get_pkg_data_filename
from astropy.io import fits

image_file = get_pkg_data_filename('tutorials/FITS-images/HorseHead.fits')

##############################################################################
# Use `astropy.io.fits.info()` to display the structure of the file:

fits.info(image_file)

##############################################################################
# Generally the image information is located in the Primary HDU, also known
# as extension 0. Here, we use `astropy.io.fits.getdata()` to read the image
# data from this first extension using the keyword argument ``ext=0``:

image_data = fits.getdata(image_file, ext=0)

##############################################################################
# The data is now stored as a 2D numpy array. Print the dimensions using the
# shape attribute:

print(image_data.shape)

##############################################################################
# Display the image data:

plt.figure()
plt.imshow(image_data, cmap='gray')
plt.colorbar()
