Respected Sir,
This is with respect to your previous mail.This is what i figured out from your
mail please correct me if i am wrong.
1> Rather than writing a code for pan sharpening we should try to import the
already existing tools from GDAl/GRASS for pan sharpening into QGIS as a
complete tool set under raster processing tab in QGIS.
So this is what i understood so here our requirement is :-
1>To have a display option of Pan sharpening under Raster->Miscellaneous->Pan
sharpening-> Methods (Method 1 would be Bayes,Method 2 would be lmvm etc.)
2>We should import the pan sharpening tools from GDAL/GRASS. (I would like you
to explain me to how exactly to go about with it in just a vague manner would
be enough)
I also understood that we can install OrFeo toolbox and directly use the pan
sharpening algorithm from there.
Instead it would be better if we had it as a separate option as a Raster
process in QGIS.
Regards,
Nancy

Nancy,
We did see your 1st email message, I suspect the slow response is due to
the weekend and many people not having an opinion on the topic.
Looking around a little I would say the focus of the project should be
to get existing pansharpen tools into QGIS. Looking in the toolbox Orfeo
methods are already available. However i.pansharpen from GRASS does not
appear to be there. Also there's this great set of gdal scripts from
https://github.com/gina-alaska/dans-gdal-scripts that includes a
pansharpen (not sure which algorithms). Having all of these in the
Processing toolbox in QGIS would be really nice.
If you really want to work on additional algorithms not already in those
tools I would suggest you work with either the GDAL or GRASS projects
directly. Implementing in those tools leads to them being available in
QGIS and likely being more maintainable and useful as they can be then
also be scripted, which makes sense when you have huge amounts of images
to fix.
Thanks,
Alex
