Description

The detector positions are laid out according to the detector layout, but optical effects can spread the detector positions, particularly near the edges of the optics tubes. Develop a module that offsets the detector positions to account for optical effects

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by inspecting how detector positions and the detector layout are represented in sotodlib, then determine how optical effects and edge-of-optics-tube distortions should be modeled. Done means a module offsets detector positions to account for those optical effects.
