1-2% Color Calibration
Big MACS is a Python program that estimates an accurate photometric calibration from only an input catalog of stellar
magnitudes and filter transmission functions. The user does not have to measure color terms which can be difficult to characterize.
Supplied with filter transmission functions, Big MACS synthesizes an expected stellar locus for your data and then simultaneously solves for all unknown zeropoints when fitti
