Detailed Description

A star-id algorithm based on assigning votes for each centroid-catalog pair then choosing the highest voted catalog stars.

While the geometric voting algorithm is the simplest true star-id algorithm I know of and is quite fast, it has some reliability issues and there are no statistical guarantees on how often it will return the wrong result. It will also frequently fail to idenify images with few stars.
