Convert map projected image to a raw camera image

Overview Parameters Example 1

Description

This program will geometrically transform a map projected image (ISIS level2 cube or mosaic) into an ISIS level1 cube using a level1 cube as input to match. This allows for example a Viking base map to be converted to a MOC raw geometry image.

The main purpose of this program is to facilitate control point selection between a level1 cube and a base map. The MATCH image and the resulting TO file can be opened in the program qnet along with other level1 cubes for building a control network with ties to ground.

X

Files: FROM

Description

The specification of the input cube to be projected. The cube must contain a valid Mapping group in the labels.

Files: MATCH

Description

This cube defines the raw instrument geometry to be matched. The output file will have the same labels (Kernels and Instrument group). Note the Band group will represent data from the raw camera and the content of the cube may not match. For example, using the MOLA base as the FROM file and a MOC Wide Angle Red cube as the MATCH, will have labels which indicate geometry for the MOC WA red camera but the pixels will contain MOLA elevations.

Option List:
Option Brief Description
NEARESTNEIGHBORNearest Neighbor Each output pixel will be set to the pixel nearest the calculated input pixel.
BILINEARBi-Linear interpolation Each output pixel will be set to the value calculated by a bi-linear interpolation of the calculated input pixel.
CUBICCONVOLUTIONCubic Convolution interpolation Each output pixel will be set to the value calculated by a cubic convolution interpolation of the calculated input pixel.
