Display and analyze cube footprints

Overview Parameters

Description

This is a tool for visualizing image footprints for a mosaic.

qmos is designed specifically for visualizing large amounts of images, how images overlap, where control points lie on the images, and how jigsaw has moved control points.

qmos is designed specifically for visualizing large amounts of images, how images overlap, where control points lie on the images, and how jigsaw has moved control points.

qmos only supports files which have latitude and longitude information associated with them. Global projections are also not supported. If your files meet these requirements, it is beneficial to run a couple of Isis programs on your files before loading them into qmos. The programs you should run are:
  • camstats from=future_input_to_qmos.cub attach=true sinc=... linc=...

  • This enables qmos to give you the emission angle, incidence angle, and resolution in the File List
  • footprintinit from=future_input_to_qmos.cub sinc=... linc=...

  • This enables qmos to use the given footprints instead of trying to calculate its own. The 'linc' and 'sinc' parameters can have a significant effect on your image's footprint. Also, images without footprints cannot be opened more than one at a time. Running footprintinit will significantly speed up loading images into qmos.
To see more documentation, launch qmos and go to "Help -> qmos Help."

History

Stacy Alley2009-05-20 Original version
Eric Hyer2010-03-22 Discontinued forcing of gui style to windows
Steven Lambright2011-09-28 Rewrote the underlying functionality and re-factored the majority of the code base to make a quicker, more-intuitive and more maintainable program. Updated user documentation to be much more complete.
Steven Lambright2011-10-05 Improved documentation in preparation for the October release. Working with me to help figure out the best ways to document qmos were Orrin Thomas and Trent Hare. Fixes #427
