As an Opticks committer, I can say it does not do that out-of-the-box. You could write something using our C++, Python or IDL interfaces. We have no current plans to add this capability, since the focus of Opticks is MASINT and non-literal exploitation.

If you find something can you report back? so I can update my FOS GIS projects paper/map I am writing on.
