Not that this is really an astronomy question per se, but astronomers are most likely to know the answer.
I have a file containing a sky survey that is in healpix format, and I need to extract the data at certain longitudes and latitudes and at certain frequencies...
In a traditional fits format i could just read the corresponding rows and columns in the file, but I'm lost as of what to do with a healpix file.
If anybody with healpix experience could help, i'd appreciate it.
