=head1 NAME hugin_stacker - stack overlapping images to a single image =head1 SYNOPSIS B<hugin_stacker> [options] --mode=STRING images =head1 DESCRIPTION B<hugin_stacker> acts on a stack of overlapping images and produces a combined image and/or a set of masked output images. B<hugin_stacker> is useful for e.g. =over =item * automatic tourist removal (not only tourists, also other moving objects ;-)) =item * noise reduction =item * visualize movement =item * multiplicity =back =head1 OPTIONS =over =item B<--mode> Select stack mode: =over =item B<min|minimum|darkest> Select the darkest pixel. =item B<max|maximum|brightest> Select the brightest pixel. =item B<avg|average|mean> Calculate the mean for each position. =item B<median> Calculate the median for each position. =item B<winsor> Calculate the Winsor trimmed mean for each position. The parameter can be set with B<--winsor-trim=NUMBER> (default: 0.2). =item B<sigma> Calculate the sigma clipped mean for each position. Fine-tune with B<--max-sigma=NUMBER> (default: 2) and B<--max-iterations=NUMBER> (default: 5). =back =back =head2 Further parameters =over =item B<--output=FILE> Set the filename for the output file (if not given final.tif is used). =item B<--compression=value> Set the compression of the output files. For jpeg files use values between 0 and 100. For tiff files valid values are: PACKBITS, DEFLATE, LZW. =item B<--bigtiff> Write output in BigTIFF format (only with TIFF output). =back =head2 Mask input images =over =item B<--mask-input> Beside the stacked output hugin_stacker can also mask the input images (available only for stacking modes median|winsor|clip). This mode is activated with --mask-input. In this case the stacked images is first calculated. Then each pixel is checked: if the value of this pixel differs more then mask sigma * standard deviation from the mean/median, this pixel is made visible. If it is in the mentioned range the pixel is masked out. =item B<--mask-sigma=NUMBER> sets the sigma parameter for --mask-input. Default is 2. =item B<--mask-suffix=STRING> Output a single image for each input image named I<inputfilenameSTRING>. Default value is "_mask". =item B<--multi-layer-output> Output a layered TIFF with the name specified with B<--output>. The file contains the averaged images as layer 0 and all input images as additional layers with the mask as described above. =back =head1 AUTHORS POD-format documentation converted from L<https://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_stacker> by Andreas Metzler
