cnetcombinept
Combine one to many control networks with common control points.
This program will create a control network by combining control points from one or more control networks into single points that satisfy image distance criteria. It employs a more robust/direct technique than cnetmerge. This technique evaluates each control point in all input networks by finding all candidate merger control points who have a measure within IMAGETOL. Then, for each candidate point, the average distance of the measures in the candidate to a measure in the source point is computed. If the average distance to any measure in the source point is less than IMAGETOL, then the candidate point and source point are merged. The candidate control point is disabled so that it will never be considered for another merger and the now augmented control point is added back to the search pool for further merger considerations, which can occur when other common measures are considered.
When all control points have been searched and all mergers have taken place, a new single combined control network is created.
Note that this application can be ran more than once and directly on the output of any past run (in other words, you need only provide a single network, if desired).
