I am computing a series of index from a 2D points (x,y). One index is the ratio between minor and major axis. To fit the ellipse i am using the following post
when i run these function the final results looks strange because the center and the axis length are not in scale with the 2D points
center = [ 560415.53298363+0.j 6368878.84576771+0.j]
angle of rotation = (-0.0528033467597-5.55111512313e-17j)
axes = [0.00000000-557.21553487j 6817.76933256 +0.j]
thanks in advance for help
