Complex Image PRocessing Chain and Under water Image Processing using pyossim

Proposed by rashadkm
The idea is to create complex image processing chain using the OSSIM python bindings pyossim. This includes adding python inteface for all the ossim-executables (ossim-igen, ossim-orthoigen, ossim-mosaic, ...). The work will add 'numpy-array' capabilities into pyossim as exchanging formast to include python-gdal and pyOpenCV to solve image processing problems for under water images processing (develop methods for : Bayer Demosaicing, Light detrend, color correction on raw tiff CCD images).

For testing purpose, the ​WHOI will provide raw CCD tiff images and relative metadata (focal leght, camera distance from the ground, roll, pitch, gain etc..) captured from ​Habcam
