+Description
+===========
+
+Overview
+--------
+This step takes as input image catalogs of point-like sources, 
+which are used to compute corrections to the WCS of
+the input images such that sky catalogs obtained from the
+image catalogs using the corrected WCS will align on the sky.
+
+Source Catalogs
+---------------
+The input catalog must be in a format automatically recognized by
+`~astropy.table.Table.read`. The catalog must contain
+either ``'x'`` and ``'y'`` or ``'xcentroid'`` and ``'ycentroid'`` columns which
+indicate source *image* coordinates (in pixels). Pixel coordinates are
+0-indexed. An optional column in the catalog is the ``'weight'`` column,
+which when present, will be used in fitting.
+
+Relative Alignment
+------------------
+Relative alignment is performed by
+the `~stcal.tweakreg.relative_align` function.
+The source catalogs for each input image are compared to each other
+and linear (affine) coordinate transformations that align these
+catalogs are derived.  This fit ensures that all the input images
+are aligned relative to each other.  This step produces a combined
+source catalog for the entire set of input images as if they were
+combined into a single mosaic.
+
+Absolute Alignment
+------------------
+
+Absolute alignment is performed by
+the `~stcal.tweakreg.absolute_align` function.
+If the parameter ``abs_refcat`` is set to 'GAIADR3', 'GAIADR2', or 'GAIADR1',
+an astrometric reference catalog then gets generated by querying
+a GAIA-based astrometric catalog web service for all astrometrically
+measured sources in the combined field-of-view of the set of input
+images. This catalog is generated from the catalogs available
+through the `STScI MAST Catalogs`_ and has the ability to account
+for proper motion to a given epoch. The epoch is computed from the observation date and time
+of the input data.
+
+.. _STScI MAST Catalogs: https://outerspace.stsci.edu/display/MASTDATA/Catalog+Access
+
+The combined source catalog 
+then gets cross-matched and fit to this astrometric reference catalog.
+The pipeline initially supports fitting to the
+GAIADR3 catalog, with the option to select the GAIADR2 or GAIADR1 instead.
+The results of this one fit then gets back-propagated to all the
+input images to align them all to the astrometric reference frame while
+maintaining the relative alignment between the images.
+
+For this part of alignment, instead of 'GAIADR1', 'GAIADR2', or 'GAIADR3', users can
+supply an external reference catalog by providing a path to an existing
+file. A user-supplied catalog must contain ``'RA'`` and ``'DEC'`` columns
+indicating reference source world coordinates (in degrees). An optional column
+in the catalog is the ``'weight'`` column, which when present, will be used
+in fitting. The catalog must be in a format automatically recognized by
+`~astropy.table.Table.read`.
+
+Grouping
+--------
+
+Images taken at the same time (e.g., NIRCam images from all short-wave
+detectors) can be aligned together; that is, a single correction
+can be computed and applied to all these images because any error in
+telescope pointing will be identical in all these images and it is assumed
+that the relative positions of (e.g., NIRCam) detectors do not change.
+Identification of images that belong to the same "exposure" and therefore
+can be grouped together is based on several attributes 
+*change from here to end of section* described in
+`~jwst.datamodels.ModelContainer`. This grouping is performed automatically
+in the ``tweakreg`` step using the
+`~jwst.datamodels.ModelContainer.models_grouped` property, which assigns
+a group ID to each input image model in ``meta.group_id``.
+
+However, when detector calibrations are not accurate, alignment of groups
+of images may fail (or result in poor alignment). In this case, it may be
+desirable to align each image independently. This can be achieved either by
+setting the ``image_model.meta.group_id`` attribute to a unique string or integer
+value for each image, or by adding the ``group_id`` attribute to the ``members`` of the input ASN
+table - see `~jwst.datamodels.ModelContainer` for more details.
+
+.. note::
+    Group ID (``group_id``) is used by both ``tweakreg`` and ``skymatch`` steps
+    and so modifying it for one step will affect the results in another step.
+    If it is desirable to apply different grouping strategies to the ``tweakreg``
+    and ``skymatch`` steps, one may need to run each step individually and
+    provide a different ASN as input to each step.
+
+WCS Correction
+--------------
+The linear coordinate transformation computed in the previous step
+is used to define tangent-plane corrections that need to be applied
+to the GWCS pipeline in order to correct input image WCS.
+This correction is implemented by inserting a ``v2v3corr`` frame with
+tangent plane corrections into the GWCS pipeline of the image's WCS.
+
+Arguments
+---------
+The ``tweakreg`` step has the following optional arguments:
+
+
+**Relative alignment parameters:**
+
+Parameters used for relative alignment between input images. These parameters
+are passed into the `~stcal.tweakreg.relative_align` function.
+
+* ``expand_refcat``: A boolean indicating whether or not to expand reference
+  catalog with new sources from other input images that have been already
+  aligned to the reference image. (Default=False)
+
+* ``minobj``: A positive `int` indicating minimum number of objects acceptable
+  for matching. (Default=15)
+
+* ``searchrad``: A `float` indicating the search radius in arcsec for a match.
+  (Default=2.0)
+
+* ``use2dhist``: A boolean indicating whether to use 2D histogram to find
+  initial offset. (Default=True)
+
+* ``separation``: Minimum object separation in arcsec. It **must be** at least
+  ``sqrt(2)`` times larger than ``tolerance``. (Default=1.0)
+
+* ``tolerance``: Matching tolerance for ``xyxymatch`` in arcsec. (Default=0.7)
+
+* ``xoffset``: Initial guess for X offset in arcsec. (Default=0.0)
+
+* ``yoffset``: Initial guess for Y offset in arcsec. (Default=0.0)
+
+* ``fitgeometry``: A `str` value indicating the type of affine transformation
+  to be considered when fitting catalogs. Allowed values:
+
+  - ``'shift'``: x/y shifts only
+  - ``'rshift'``: rotation and shifts
+  - ``'rscale'``: rotation and scale
+  - ``'general'``: shift, rotation, and scale
+
+  The default value is "rshift".
+
+  .. note::
+      Mathematically, alignment of images observed in different tangent planes
+      requires ``fitgeometry='general'`` in order to fit source catalogs
+      in the different images even if mis-alignment is caused only by a shift
+      or rotation in the tangent plane of one of the images.
+
+      However, under certain circumstances, such as small alignment errors or
+      minimal dithering during observations that keep tangent planes of the
+      images to be aligned almost parallel, then it may be more robust to
+      use a ``fitgeometry`` setting with fewer degrees of freedom such as
+      ``'rshift'``, especially for "ill-conditioned" source catalogs such as
+      catalogs with very few sources, or large errors in source positions, or
+      sources placed along a line or bunched in a corner of the image (not
+      spread across/covering the entire image).
+
+* ``nclip``: A non-negative integer number of clipping iterations
+  to use in the fit. (Default=3)
+
+* ``sigma``: A positive `float` indicating the clipping limit, in sigma units,
+  used when performing fit. (Default=3.0)
+
+**Absolute Astrometric fitting parameters:**
+
+Parameters used for absolute astrometry to a reference catalog.
+These parameters
+are passed into the `~stcal.tweakreg.absolute_align` function.
+
+* ``abs_refcat``: String indicating what astrometric catalog should be used.
+  Currently supported options: 'GAIADR1', 'GAIADR2', 'GAIADR3', a path to an existing
+  reference catalog, `None`, or `''`. See
+  `stcal.tweakreg.tweakreg.SINGLE_GROUP_REFCAT`
+  for an up-to-date list of supported built-in reference catalogs.
+
+  When ``abs_refcat`` is `None` or an empty string, alignment to the
+  absolute astrometry catalog will be turned off.
+  (Default= `''`)
+
+* ``abs_minobj``: A positive `int` indicating minimum number of objects
+  acceptable for matching. (Default=15)
+
+* ``abs_searchrad``: A `float` indicating the search radius in arcsec for
+  a match. It is recommended that a value larger than ``searchrad`` be used for
+  this parameter (e.g. 3 times larger) (Default=6.0)
+
+* ``abs_use2dhist``: A boolean indicating whether to use 2D histogram to find
+  initial offset. It is strongly recommended setting this parameter to `True`.
+  Otherwise the initial guess for the offsets will be set to zero
+  (Default=True)
+
+* ``abs_separation``: Minimum object separation in arcsec. It **must be** at
+  least ``sqrt(2)`` times larger than ``abs_tolerance``. (Default=1.0)
+
+* ``abs_tolerance``: Matching tolerance for ``xyxymatch`` in arcsec.
+  (Default=0.7)
+
+* ``abs_fitgeometry``: A `str` value indicating the type of affine
+  transformation to be considered when fitting catalogs. Allowed values:
+
+  - ``'shift'``: x/y shifts only
+  - ``'rshift'``: rotation and shifts
+  - ``'rscale'``: rotation and scale
+  - ``'general'``: shift, rotation, and scale
+
+  The default value is "rshift". Note that the same conditions/restrictions
+  that apply to ``fitgeometry`` also apply to ``abs_fitgeometry``.
+
+* ``abs_nclip``: A non-negative integer number of clipping iterations
+  to use in the fit. (Default=3)
+
+* ``abs_sigma``: A positive `float` indicating the clipping limit, in sigma
+  units, used when performing fit. (Default=3.0)
+
+* ``save_abs_catalog``: A boolean specifying whether or not to write out the
+  astrometric catalog used for the fit as a separate product. (Default=False)
