grid

Printer Friendly View | TOC | Home

Add a grid to the input image.

Overview Parameters

Description

Superimpose a grid on an input image using input from the user. The grid can defined in terms of latitude and longitude, or simply lines and samples. For example, if you wanted to draw a grid that has an intersection at line 23, sample 17, with vertical lines every 30 pixels and horizontal lines every 40 pixels, your parameters would be: BASELINE = 23, BASESAMPLE = 17, SINC = 30, and LINC = 40.

If you wanted to draw a grid on a map projection that was based on latitude and longitude, GROUND would be selected instead. And suppose you wanted the grid to have an intersection at LAT 50, LON 60, with lines drawn every two and a half degrees latitude and every three degrees longitude. Your parameters would be: BASELAT = 50, BASELON = 60, LATINC = 2.5, and LONINC = 3.
