I decided to create a special thread for this topic. Previously information on IMG2PNG was scattered across various threads here.
I new version of IMG2PNG is now available. For those that don't know, this is a command line uitility that can convert various PDS formatted files to PNGs (8 or 16 bits per pixel depending on the input files). This utility should work for lots of different PDS files, e.g. MER, Pathfinder, Voyager, Galileo, Cassini, Stardust, various Mars orbiters, Mariner 9/10 (!), Viking Orbiter, Viking Lander, Magellan, Clementine, Messenger, New Horizons etc. The major new feature in the new version is the ability to convert FITS files. IMG2PNG can be downloaded by visiting http://www.mmedia.is/bjj/utils/img2png Any information on possible bugs welcome. |

QUOTE Getting the full 16 bits makes a big difference in some cases though. how true the busted tiff in isis has not been a pain seeing as i use openev to export a cub to tiff so the img2png will if the img is 16 bit , export a 16 bit ( red & green) png ? if the img is 8 bit export a 8 bit gray png |

the busted tiff in isis has not been a pain seeing as i use openev to export a cub to tiff Depending on whether the source data is 32-bit, isnt the tiff output by OpenEV fully floating point? I tried loading it in Matlab and seems fine to me. In-fact, thats what I turned to yesterday after discovering IMG2PNG would only do 16-bit. |
