Brief Description

Extracts an image envelope.

Long Description

Build a vector data containing the image envelope polygon. Useful for some projection, you can set the polygon with more points with the sr parameter. This filter supports user-specified output projection. If no projection is defined, the standard WGS84 projection will be used.

Parameters

Input Image (in): Input image filename.
Output Vector Data (out): Vector data file containing the envelope.
Sampling Rate (sr): Sampling rate for image edges (in pixel).
Elevation management (elev): This group of parameters allows managing elevation values. Supported formats are SRTM, DTED or any geotiff. DownloadSRTMTiles application could be a useful tool to list/download tiles related to a product.
- DEM directory (elev.dem): This parameter allows selecting a directory containing Digital Elevation Model files. Note that this directory should contain only DEM files. Unexpected behaviour might occurs if other images are found in this directory.
- Geoid File (elev.geoid): Use a geoid grid to get the height above the ellipsoid in case there is no DEM available, no coverage for some points or pixels with no_data in the DEM tiles. A version of the geoid can be found on the OTB website(https://gitlab.orfeo-toolbox.org/orfeotoolbox/otb-data/blob/master/Input/DEM/egm96.grd).
- Default elevation (elev.default): This parameter allows setting the default height above ellipsoid when there is no DEM available, no coverage for some points or pixels with no_data in the DEM tiles, and no geoid file has been set. This is also used by some application as an average elevation value.

Projection (proj): Projection to be used to compute the envelope (default is WGS84)
