band-merge
Merges multiple image files into a single band merged file. Typically all images have the same dimensions and are relative to the same projection.
Usage
ossim-band-merge [options] <output_type> <input_file1> <input_file2> ... <output_file>
Options
--disable-elev Will disable the elevation
--disable-notify Takes an argument. Arguments are ALL, WARN, NOTICE,
INFO, FATAL, DEBUG. If you want multiple disables
then just do multiple --disable-notify on the command
line. All argument are case insensitive. Default is
all are enabled.
--ossim-logfile takes a logfile as an argument. All output messages
are redirected to the specified log file. By default
there is no log file and all messages are enabled.
-K specify individual keywords to add to the preferences
keyword list: name=value
-P specify a preference file to load
-T specify the classes to trace, ex:
ossimInit|ossimImage.*
will trace ossimInit and all ossimImage classes
-h or --help Display this information
-o or --create-overiew Creates and overview for the output image
-w or --tile-width Defines the tile width for the handlers that support
tiled output
Output Type
The output_type must be a valid format (e.g. tiff_tiled_band_separate). See the full list of supported formats here.
Notes
- "-w" option only valid with tiff type.
- Tile width must be a multiple of 32.
- The ossim library likes "tiled" image types as ossim is tiled in nature. So if you are going to feed the output file to another ossim application you should choose a tiled output format for speed.
