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. |

Thanks for the info, I have taken a look into gmic and had an issue and was wondering if you could help me out some more, while trying to use gmic I get the error failed to open #file# with mode 'rb' im not that much of an expert at this and I couldn't find any answers using google.
however photoshop (CS5 and probably 6, possibly others) has the option to create 32 bit files, while the color pallet doesn't change it can handle these images even if you cant really edit them in that scale (same as 16 bit as each channel is still only 255 each no matter the bit depth) Also the reason I used the index file for the NAC image is because of what was written on the img2png website regarding the NAC files, that it has its own ini file to edit with the location and file name of the index file that it then uses. as I am not experienced or knowledgeable with such things I have to rely upon these instructions. |
