SYNOPSIS

ossim-create-bitmask [,options/] ,<input file>/

DESCRIPTION

Description: ossim-create-bitmask Generates a bit-mask given source image and target pixel range to mask out. If the input image has overviews, then masks will be generated for all R-levels.

OPTIONS

--disable-elev

Will disable the elevation

--disable-notify

Takes an argument. Arguments are ALL, WARN, NOTICE, INFO, FATAL, DEBUG. If you want multiple disables then just do multiple --disable-notify on the command line. All argument are case insensitive. Default is all are enabled.

--disable-plugin

Will disable the plugin loader

--mask-mode <mode>

Specifies how to treat multi-band imagery when determining whether pixel will be masked according to the defined target value or range. Possible modes are: "mask_full_and_partial_targets" (default) | "mask_only_full_targets".

--mask-range <min> <max>

Specifies the range of pixels to target for masking out.

--mask-value <target>

Specifies the unique pixel value to target for masking out.

--ossim-logfile

takes a logfile as an argument. All output messages are redirected to the specified log file. By default there is no log file and all messages are enabled.

--ovr-from-image

Uses exclusively the image overview data when computing subsequent overviews. Normally the mask overview from the prior level is referenced for establishing the masks at the next level.

--spec-kwl <filename>

In lieu of providing mask parameters on the command line, this option specifies a keyword list filename that contains all settings. Typically used when spawning from other process.

-K

specify individual keywords to add to the preferences keyword list: name=value

-P

specify a preference file to load

-T

specify the classes to trace, ex: ossimInit|ossimImage.* will trace ossimInit and all ossimImage classes

-d

Write mask to directory specified.

-e or --entry

Give the entry(zero based) for which to build a mask. Only one entry can be processed. If the input is multi-entry and no entry was specified, entry 0 is assumed.

-h or --help

Shows help

-o

Write mask to file specified. If used on a multi-entry file, given "foo.mask" you will get: "foo_e0.mask". If none specified, the input filename is used with ".mask" extension.

-x or --exclude-fullres

Excludes R0 mask computation. The mask file will start at R1.
