I don't think enfuse reduces the dynamic range to 24-bit color.

Well, at least I make enfuse do this as I make the output from it in a
24-bit RGB JPG.


Yes, you can do that. I prefer to end with 16-bit TIF.


Surely more information is capable of giving more quality and maybe in
some situations I would see some better results, mainly if I use it in
the intermediate steps. As far as I've experienced until now I don't
even see much need to use raw shooting. I've already tested it some
times and when I am shooting a hard scene I shoot raw, but in 90% of the
cases I am pretty much satisfied with shooting and working with 24-bit
RGB JPGs.


On some images now, I finish by pulling the 16-bit TIF in Luminance HDR 
and tonemap the image.



I usually only publish on the web. I have already printed some pictures
in fine quality and thought that there it could make more visual
difference for me, but at the computer screen my poor eyes are satisfied
till now :)


You can't really see HDR on display screens or prints, because 
high-dynamic range means wider dynamic range than display or print 
technologies can reproduce. HDR is for all of the processing up to the 
final output. I prefer TIF for that, too, or PNG, just because even at 
100% quality, JPG loses color information. But I'm weird about that ...

Re: [hugin-ptx] Re: determine heading from sun position.

2012-11-21 Thread Carl von Einem
Oh, the trick is so cool I used it as soon as it was mentioned by Kay 
here on the list. It's perfect to calculate the heading of a panorama if 
you publish it on 360cities.net so links to other panoramas point in the 
right direction, like here: 
http://www.360cities.net/image/seinskopf-peak-above-isar-valley
Kay's trick works great here, and I really like Erik's approach of 
including the wolfram search in an exiftool command.
Exiftool can write the coordinates e.g. from a simple GPS logger in your 
images, and it's very fast.


In another case when the sun was in the clouds 
http://www.360cities.net/image/zugspitz-gatterl-connecting-reintal-and-ehrwald-the-easy-way-germany 
I needed another approach: I knew my panorama's coordinates and spotted 
a well known hut somewhere in the distance: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knorr_Hut. It was easy to find both in 
Google Maps and then calculate the angle from a screenshot.

Ok, I will try that.
I don't really get why I fot those crazy values even with the new enblend.
The funny things is that if  I create the mosaic with all the pictures 141 
pictures I get those crazy value.
When I create it with just 131 pictures i don't get them even though the 
area is covered.
I join a screen copy of the same area.

Well I compare really carefully the source images and the final one, it

this was kind of useless since I need my value to stay the same.
I'm kind of desperate now anyone has a way to do that without changing the

If you don't want the values to change during blending then maybe you need
a simple seam without any feathering, try using an enblend -l 1 parameter.
This will do a basic hard-edged montage.

Though I'm not sure exactly what your problem is without more info.

Have you looked at GRASS GIS as a way of stitching/patching your images  
together?

Re: [hugin-ptx] Use of Hugin in remote sensing

2012-11-21 Thread alouest
Well sorry as non-english speaker it's pretty hard to make it clear.

i have many Tiff files with temperature information and I know that they 
overlap since they are extracted from a thermal movie carried on a plane. 
So my aim is just to past the images together without any change to the 
value since they will be the base to some really accurate analysis.
It seems that nona as well change the value however  I will try the -l 1 
option in enblend and see if it works.

The problem of Grass is that I need coordinates for that, my final image 
will be georeferenced afterwards but for the moment they don't have any 
geographical information so i can't use any GIS tools

Thanks again and if you have a magic option for nona to avoid the change of 
the value i would finish this crazy project!

OK, I understand.
If you can georeference afterwards, then you should have enough info to  
georeference each image prior, then patch them together in GRASS, but that  
does require a bit more work.
If you can't stitch in hugin without any change in pixel values, then you  
may well have to resort to the above approach.

I don´t remember if you already told how you got your images. I
mean: are your individual pictures a copy of the movie frames? Do you
know some parameters of the lens used to make the movie?
As Hugin uses the lens geometry (image distortions, etc) I seems
sensible that nona could change yor values, as nona generates images
projected on a sphere (for panoramas) or over a plane, for mosaics --
which I guess is your problem: a planar surface with a field of
temperatures.  [post note: I just checked your first message and you
told us about /a temperature raster mosaic/]. Have you seen
http://hugin.sourceforge.net/tutorials/scans/en.shtml already?

Did you create the control points by hand, or with cpfind or other
automated methods? Your hot surface has enough distinctive features to
select as controls points?
I apologize if those questions are already answered in previous
messages... I can´t remember it all ;)

[hugin-ptx] What's the status of the gui update?

2012-11-21 Thread Tduell
Hello All,
There hasn't been a lot of discussion of late about problems with the gui 
update.
I have been running a gui update version for a while now, and it seems to 
be OK for me.
I guess I am getting used to it, and perhaps my projects are relatively 
simple, but I haven't run into difficulties that haven't been able to be 
overcome by a bit of 'education'.
If it is considered to be what we want, and close to sorted, I might start 
putting a bit of time into revising tutorials ready for when we release 
with the new gui.

The question is, are we close to finalising the new gui?

Cheers,
Terry

It better not become the GUI until we have the option keep and use the
