nedhorning "I'm curious why you need at least 3 bands for automated classification. I don't have a specific classification task in mind. In general I'm working..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "That's a good observation. The hotspot in these test images would tend to be toward the bottom around the shadow from Chris' head since that's wher..." | Read more » over 9 years ago

nedhorning "I got a 3" x 3" Wratten 25A gel filter on ebay for $10. There's a lot left over if you want to try it. " | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "Chris - It's interesting that you find that the Canon Powershots don't record much NIR in the blue channel. I found just the opposite - that the bl..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "Thanks for your comments. I am rethinking the idea that a blue filter is sensitive to chlorophyll absorption. Blue wavelengths have similar reflect..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "Thanks for the comments Chris. I would be a little cautious drawing more than very broad conclusions at this point. The reflectance values for the ..." | Read more » over 9 years ago

nedhorning "There are gel and glass NIR-block filters that you can buy that do a pretty good job at blocking visible light. There might also be some other free..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "My guess is that you would get the same effect that you get with a blue card if you used a gray card and then multiply the blue channel by a factor..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "This white balance stuff got me thinking. I don't think the white balance actually changes the amount of light recorded by the sensor but instead m..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "With the Infrablue filter there is both visible and NIR light hitting the camera sensor and it would be helpful to know how different wavelengths a..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "Sorry for not explaining this better. We were just trying to understand which sensor channels are recording which wavelengths of light. The images ..." | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "Would the result improve if you set white balance using a neutral target? Concrete is pretty even across the visible and near IR. " | Read more » over 9 years ago
nedhorning "Well done. I've been working a bit with texture to add additional image layers (predictor variables) to the stack for eventual automated classifica..." | Read more » almost 10 years ago
nedhorning "Hi Charlie, The better we can represent the variability of the feature we are trying to classify the more accurate the result should be. In genera..." | Read more » almost 10 years ago
nedhorning "HI all, I thought I made a comment on this earlier today but apparently I did something wrong (again). It's great to see more people digging into ..." | Read more » almost 10 years ago

nedhorning "I have a feeling it is a white balance problem. The blue channel seems to be off. I would expect vegetation to be much darker in the blue channel. ..." | Read more » almost 10 years ago

nedhorning "Great shots. The impact of shadows on NDVI will vary with the darkness of the shadow. Lower pixel values (darker shadow) will be more likely to pro..." | Read more » about 10 years ago
