hi,
I am doing elaborations on Cosmo Skymed images (.h5 file format) and I have found problems with orthorectification in Geometry tab. Could anyone tell me all the steps or option you need to get to a good orthorectification with otb tools? I tried all Parameters estimation modes but the the log dialog give errors every time. Thank you for your availability.
I am not sure Orthorectification is available for CosmoSkymed products with OTB 7.4. It is not listed in the CookBook.
The future OTB 8.0 should fix this. You may want to give it a try.
Hello,
I tested OTB 8.0 but the output using my SCK stripmap image is stretched and deformed. Here is an example:
Even if I set the correct sizeX/Y and pixel spacing my output doesn’t overlap correctly to Google maps (for example). I tried all Parameters estimation modes but the output is always the same.
Could someone help me?
Thanks!
I don’t see where the problem comes from. Can you share with us the command line you entered and the output logs?
Hello!
Here is the output log where you can find also the command line.
