Some metafits files will have a pointing table which would be necessary for some preprocessing.

What do you mean by pointing table? Sweet spots?

The new code to generate metafits files for MWAX to use internally includes an extra HDU in the metafits file that has alt/az/distance information calculated for the pointing centre every 4 seconds, for the duration of the observation. Brian's code will interpolate and use that data for fringe stopping.
