ossim-chipper

ossim-chipper is a command line application used to generate image products from single or multiple image inputs. This includes chipping in image space, format conversions, ortho-rectification, elevation products from raw dem, dted, and srtm data.

Highlights:

  • Input images can be in any format the ossim library can read.
  • Output image can be in any format the ossim library can write.
  • Outputs include:
    • simple format conversion
    • Chipping in image space, with various cut options, e.g. "cut center, lat, lon, with height, with rotation and scale option.
    • Ortho-rectification of data with sensor models effected by elevation.
    • Color Reliefs
    • Hillshades
    • Two Color Multiviews (2cmw)
    • Pan Sharpened Multispectral.
  • Ortho-rectification of data with a sensor model that is affected by elevation is automatic, provided your elevation set up is correct.
    See elevation setup for more on that:http://trac.osgeo.org/ossim/wiki/ossimElevationSetup

Note:

Typical usage is to have pre-built overviews and histogram for input files. To build do:

ossim-preproc -o --ch <input-file(s)>

See ossim-preproc wiki documentation for more:http://trac.osgeo.org/ossim/wiki/ossim-preproc

Usage:

$ ossim-chipper
Usage: ossim-chipper [option]... [input-option]... <input-file(s)> <output-file>
Note at least one input is required either from one of the input options, e.g. --input-dem <my-dem.hgt> or adding to command line in front of the output file in which case the code will try to ascertain what type of input it is.

Available traces:
-T "ossimChipperUtil:debug"   - General debug trace to standard out.
-T "ossimChipperUtil:log"     - Writes a log file to output-file.log.
-T "ossimChipperUtil:options" - Writes the options to output-file-options.kwl.

NOTES:
1) Never use same base name in the same directory! Example is you have a Chicago.tif
   and you want a Chicago.jp2, output Chicago.jp2 to its own directory.

Example commands:

Color Relief

Color Relief is used to generate an RGB or ARGB representation of a dem. Different colors are used to represent elevation bands. Users will provide a template with corresponding colors values.

There is a color relief template on:

Hillshade

Hillshade is used to generate a shaded relief. It requires the following inputs:

  • Sun Azimuth
  • Sun Elevation
  • Vertical Exaggeration
  • Color (either RGB or Color Table)

Example:

ossim-chipper --op hillshade --azimuth 270 --elevation 45 --exaggeration 10
--color 222,229,188 --srs EPSG:4326 input.src output.jpg

Example with color table:

ossim-chipper --op hillshade --azimuth 270 --elevation 45 --exaggeration 10
--color-table template.kwl --srs EPSG:4326 input.src output.jpg

Example with color table without dot.src file:

ossim-chipper --op color-relief --azimuth 270 --elevation 45 --exaggeration 1.5 --color-table color-relief-lut.kwl --srs EPSG:4326 n37.dt1 t1.tif

Chipping examples in image space:

Chip about latitude longitude point, 512x512 in image space, rotate "up is up", histogram stretch, scale to eight bit, outputting to a png file.
Note the up is up mode requires a sensor model that is affected by elavtion.

ossim-chipper --op chip -u --histogram-op auto-minmax --cut-center-llwh -42.883986392005788 147.331309643650911 512 512 --scale-to-8-bit -w ossim_png 5V090205P0001912264B220000100282M_001508507.ntf up-is-up.png

Additional Parameters

ossim-chipper shares many of the parameters used in orthoigen including:

  • writer-props
  • resample-type
  • thumbnail
  • srs

It accepts a comma delimited list of input files or a .src file. The output file extension is used to determine output format. As with orthoigen, users can specify a writer to use with a -w argument.

SRC File

The src file used by ossim-chipper is nearly identical to the one used by orthoigen. The primary difference between the 2 is the use of the dem keyword to distinguish elevation data from imagery data. Example:

image0.file: C:\my_image.ntf
image0.entry: 2
image0.ovr: D:\support_dir\images\my_image.ovr
image0.rgb: 3,2,1

dem0:file E:\N38W123.hgt
dem0.entry: 0
dem0.ovr: D:\support_dir\dems\N38W123.ovr

dem1:file Z:\N37W123.hgt
dem1.entry: 0
dem1.ovr: D:\support_dir\dems\N37W123.ovr

Example command:
