Colorization Tool for Isis Sponsor: Jeff Anderson USGS Astrogeology, Computer Scientist Presented by Deborah Lee Soltesz

What we do: Isis Software  Image processing and cartography software  Support mission teams, scientists, researchers, cartographers working with planetary image data from missions like Mars Recon Orbiter, Mars rovers, Cassini-Huygens, etc.

What is Isis  Collection of applications to ingest and process planetary image data  Viewer (qview) to view image data and assist with setting up parameters to processing apps

Color-coding  Assign shades of grey to color scheme  Gradient or discrete  Typically used to assign colors to elevations in topography

Example: Global Mapper Color-coded topography

Example: Global Mapper Color-code with hillshading

Custom discrete color-coding

Example: Global Mapper Custom gradient color-coding

Photoshop Gradient map tool Gradient editor

Example: UltraFractal

Example: Apophysis Create gradient from an image Randomly generate gradients Save and open gradients

Skills  Linux  C++  Qt 4 GUI API

You’ll need… we’ll help  Isis development environment  SuSE 10.1 Pro Linux with stuff installed  Isis  API and Docs: isis.astrogeology.usgs.gov

Deliverables  Add-on tool for Isis’ qview image viewer  Interactively create color-coding scheme  Preview color-scheme applied to current image  Save gradient (we’ll tell you the format)  New application to apply saved gradient to an image
