Dear all, we are proud to announce that OTB 4.2.0 codename "The answer to life the universe and everything" and Monteverdi2 0.8 have been released!
The 4.2 is a major milestone, among the novelties of this release, one can find : - A major *speed-up in Haralick textures* calculation, which may be 10 times faster in some cases, - An *enhancement of the optical calibration framework*, now allowing calibration parameters to be either read from metadata or fully set by hand. One can now calibrate images even when OTB does not support or find the metadata. This release includes as well major improvement of atmospheric corrections for Pleiades images, - RPC coefficients for sensor modeling can now be read and written from/to* GeoTIFF RPC tags*, - *JPEG2000* images can now be read using a *Gdal driver* (OpenJPEG, Kakadu, ECW) if available, - Numerous bugfixes in code and docs from community after the last release 4.0. On *Monteverdi2* side : - The *rendering engine has been changed to use Ice <http://youtu.be/DR8l-0WajTw>*, which allows for better rendering performances and fancy visualization stuff, - The data manager now allows to *create and manage groups of data* to organize them, - Numerous bugfixes.
