Description

This program will use an interest operator specified by the user to evaluate the interest of an entire cube and output the interest in a cube full of interest values. It uses the same PVL format used for Interest Operator. Note: forstner operator output will need to be manually stretched to see visual results, due to the wide range of values it creates.

Examples

Example 1

Using interestcube with forstner operator

Description

The use of Interst to ingest an Isis 3 cube and output a cube with interest values.

Command Line

interestcube from= ab102401.cub pvl= input.pvl to= out.cub
This example shows the use of interestcube to create an Isis3 cube of interest values from a standard Isis 3 cube. This example will use a 3x3 boxcar using the ForstnerOperator.

Input Image

This is the input Isis 3 cube.

Input Isis 3 cube.

Parameter Name: FROM

The input cube that the Interest Operator is to run on.

Data File

Input pvl file. This is the pvl file that defines how the program is to operate.

Output Image

Cube full of interest values after processing.

Output image after processing.

Parameter Name: TO

The interest cube image after processing. To view a forstner image you MUST manually stretch the image. This image has been stretched from 0 to 1.67854e-27. Keep in mind if you dont do this, the data in the cube will be valid, it will just display all white in qview.

Example 2

Using interestcube with gradient operator

Description

The use of Interst to ingest an Isis 3 cube and output a cube with interest values.

Command Line

interestcube from= ab102401.cub pvl= input.pvl to= out.cub
This example shows the use of interestcube to create an Isis3 cube of interest values from a standard Isis 3 cube. This example will use a 3x3 boxcar using the Gradient Operator.

Example 3

Using interestcube with Moravec operator

Description

The use of Interst to ingest an Isis 3 cube and output a cube with interest values.

Command Line

interestcube from= ab102401.cub pvl= input.pvl to= out.cub
This example shows the use of interestcube to create an Isis3 cube of interest values from a standard Isis 3 cube. This example will use a 3x3 boxcar using the Moravec Operator.

Example 4

Using interestcube with Standard Deviation operator

Description

The use of Interst to ingest an Isis 3 cube and output a cube with interest values.

Command Line

interestcube from= ab102401.cub pvl= input.pvl to= out.cub
This example shows the use of interestcube to create an Isis3 cube of interest values from a standard Isis 3 cube. This example will use a 3x3 boxcar using the Standard Deviation Operator.

Example 5

Using interestcube with a Large Boxcar

Description

The use of Interst to ingest an Isis 3 cube and output a cube with interest values. This uses StandardDeviationOperator and a large boxcar to show the blurring affect of using a larger boxcar.

Command Line

interestcube from= ab102401.cub pvl= input.pvl to= out.cub
This example shows the use of interestcube to create an Isis3 cube of interest values from a standard Isis 3 cube. This example will use a 15x15 boxcar using the StandardDeviationOperator.
