Observatory

Observatory Schema

Description: A location with one or more telescopes, owned by an Entity.

An Observatory is a *region* (e.g., a campus or part of a mountain) and
typically references a :class:`Site`. Its ``latitude``/``longitude``/
``elevation`` are usually populated from the site but may be tweaked to a
representative point for large sites. Each :class:`Telescope` within an
observatory has its own pier coordinates, which may differ from the
observatory's representative location.
