Benchmarks for astro conversions

I do not see any benchmark comparisons for transformations between different coordinate systems / positions of celestial objects.

If not just overlooked it my suggestion would be to use the 3 benchmark tables from http://antares-wiki.in2p3.fr/doku.php?id=benchmarks_astro

  1. Tracks local -> equatorial / galactic
  2. Celestial objects RA/DEC -> local
  3. Moon/Sun position for given time in local / RA, DEC
