Selected Highlights
-
Clipping and Resampling
-
Resampling of cell size to support pyramid creation or just smaller images
-
Clipping
-
Prior releases always forced the output image extents to match the input
-
2018 now supports clipping to a region, to support “cookie-cutting”
-
One to Many Outputs
-
Region support has been extended from selecting only one region to optionally producing many outputs
-
Workflow: one mosaic input, one shapefile but with 20x features
-
With 2018, via the UI it can automatically create 20x outputs based on each feature geometry
-
Vast workflow improvement for many data providers who often need to produce many image outputs clipped to an administrative or other region
-
New GUI and XML options for JP2 output: progression order (RPCL, LRCP, RLCP), precinct and tile size, markers and quality layers
-
New GUI and XML options for writing GML in JP2 and/or GeoJP2 georeference boxes
-
Specify band-list setting in GUI for inputs
