sigmastretch

Apply a Sigma Stretch to a cube.

This application is a translation of the Davinci script "sstretch" (Arizona State University, http://davinci.asu.edu). This program will stretch a cube according to the following formula for each pixel in the image:
      new_dn = (old_dn - avg) * (variance / stddev)
    
where avg and stddev are the statistical average and standard deviation of all valid pixels in the current band. The variance is a user-specified parameter, VARIANCE, that affects how much the histogram of the image is widened, and does not represent the statistical variance of the image.
