'null' value on exportOrthomosaic
« on: March 07, 2017, 09:13:05 AM »
good afternoon,

i thought i remember seeing somewhere that the null or background value for an exported Orthomosaic changed in the latest 1.3.0

previous release 1.2.3 had a background value of 0,0,0, but version 1.3.0 has background value 255,255,255

is this easily changed somewhere? i cant see it as an option in the API.

we would like to change it because we have alot of downstream processes setup to use 0,0,0

thanks

Hello Coalisgood,

We'll try to add the background color flag (white or black) to the exportOrthomosaic function in the next update.

Only a choice of black or white? I prefer a magenta - which happens to be a colour which is never found in my orthophotos.

Hello rossnixon,

I think in the 1.3.1 there would be only black or white. "Magenta" cannot be applied easily to non-RGB multichannel exports.

Meanwhile you can use alpha-channel anyway to cover the unused area.

Hi Alexey,
i see this option is now available in the GUI for exportmosaic in version 1.3.1, but i see no reference of it in the python 1.3 API?

is this available too please?

Hello Coalisgood,

You can use white_background = True as an argument in the exportOrthomosaic() function to get white color. For black background use white_background = False.
