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. |

A new version of IMG2PNG is now available that incorparates several bug fixes from the past several weeks/months (some of these bug fixes were available in 'interim' versions of IMG2PNG). The bugs were mainly in the conversion of IMG files containing floating point data. In particular the bugs affected the conversion of Messenger orbital data (fixed several months ago), Rosetta Osiris data (fixed a few months ago) and LROC and HiRise DTMs (fixed recently). More files containing floating point data were probably affected. There is also a new command line parameter, -fstretch (actually it was added several months ago when I made some Rosetta-related fixes).
As usual, IMG2PNG is available here. |
