Orfeo Toolbox (OTB) is a high resolution remote sensing image processing library. It contains a set of algorithmic components which allow the user to capitalize on methodological know how, and therefore use an incremental approach to profit from the results of methodological research. OTB is made of a set of basic elements (a C++ class API) and utilities (independent programs built upon the base API).

Recent releases


Changes: Cloud detection was implemented for QB/Pléiades images. Alignment and right angle detection (Burns, Grompone) were addded. Radiometric indices were added for vegetation, water, and soil. Texture computations were optimized, including Haralick, SFS, Pantex, and Edge density. A SIFT density image function and filter were added. Object-based segmentation and filtering were added. A LSD line segment detector and right angle detector were added. PCA computation was added.


Changes: Geometric sensor models, cartographic projections, radiometric calibratrion (radiometric corrections), image registration, and image PAN-sharpening were added.


Changes: Minor bugs were fixed. Support was added for Python binding compilation, including ITK binding templated with OTB images, OTB I/O, and OTB Image viewer. OSSIM has been integrated in the OTB Utilities directory to prepare for its future use in new geometric features.


Changes: This release adds various bugfixes, support for VC++ 7.1 and 8.0, Cygwin, and MinGW, several new image formats (Erdas HFA, Lum), multiscale analysis (morphological pyramid) and spatial reasoning (RCC8), improvement of the visualization, and new applications.
