Hello all,
We are pleased to announce the availability of the OrfeoToolbox [1] Qgis
plugin.
This plugin is based on the already available "Processing Manager"
plugin [2], which can also provide access to the SAGA modules.
It's a Python plugin which can be installed through the Python Plugin
Installer (but need a required OTB Python package installed on your system).
The plugin is hosted in the Faunalia repository, next to the "Processing
Manager" and the "SAGA Module interface" plugins.
Installation instructions for the backend Python package are given in [3].
In particular, an OSGeo4W-compatible binary is provided on a nightly
basis at [4], so Windows users can install and test it in a few minutes.
Testing it on Linux involves more work (see [3]), but we are working on
providing Ubuntu binary packages to ease the installation process on
this platform.
The plugin provides access to a set of modules wrapping different kind
of functionnalities of the Orfeo Toolbox.
As of now, modules are available to perform the following tasks :
- P+XS Pan Sharpening
- Orthorectification
- Optical Calibration
- KMeans clustering
- SVM Supervised Classification
- Mean Shift segmentation
- Change Detection (Multivariate Alteration Detector algorithm)
- Hyperspectral data unmixing
- Filtering (mean, gaussian, anisotropic diffusion)
- Raster conversion and scaling
This is only the beginning and new modules will be added regularly to
expose most of the OTB functionnalities in easy to use application modules.
Many thanks to Camilo for providing the Processing Manager Framework,
and to Paolo and Giuseppe for helping on the plugin packaging.
We will be glad to hear your feedback !
Best regards,
Julien
