"""Regions helper functions.

Throughout Gammapy, we use `regions` to represent and work with regions.

https://astropy-regions.readthedocs.io

The functions ``make_region`` and ``make_pixel_region`` should be used
throughout Gammapy in all functions that take ``region`` objects as input.
They do conversion to a standard form, and some validation.

We might add in other conveniences and features here, e.g. sky coord contains
without a WCS (see "sky and pixel regions" in PIG 10), or some HEALPix integration.

TODO: before Gammapy v1.0, discuss what to do about ``gammapy.utils.regions``.
Options: keep as-is, hide from the docs, or to remove it completely
(if the functionality is available in ``astropy-regions`` directly.
