SYNOPSIS

       ossim-pc2dem [options] <output_type> <input_file> <output_file>

DESCRIPTION

       Description:  ossim-pc2dem  copies  any supported input image format to any supported output image format
       format

OPTIONS

       --disable-elev
              Will disable the elevation

       --disable-notify
              Takes an argument. Arguments are ALL, WARN, NOTICE, INFO, FATAL,  DEBUG.   If  you  want  multiple

       --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.

       --pixel-type <type>
              Valid  values:  area  or  point,  this will determine if the tie point is upper left corner of the
              upper left pixel (area) or the center of the upper left corner (point), default=point. NOTE:  This
              option will only affect the tiff writer.

       --reader-prop <string>
              Adds a property to send to the reader. format is name=value

       --use-mask [<fname>]
              Optionally  specify  name  of  mask file to use for masking the input image. If no filename given,
              then the default mask filename is used.

       --writer-prop <string>
              Adds a property to send to the writer. format is name=value

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

       -L or --end-line <n>
              Which end line do you wish to copy from the input.  If none is given then max line is used

       -P     specify a preference file to load

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

       -a or --use-scalar-remapper
              Uses scalar remapper, transforms to 8-bit

       -b or --bands <n,n...>
              uses  the specified bands: ex. "1, 2, 4" will select bands 1 2 and 4 of the input image.  Note: it
              is 1 based

       -c or --compression-type <type>
              Uses compression.  Currently valid for only tiff output -c jpeg will use jpeg compression

       -e or --entry <n>
              For multi image handlers which entry do you wish to extract

       -g     Convert to grey scale.

       -h or --help
              Display this information

       -l or --start-line <n>
              Which start line do you wish to copy from the input. If none is given then 0 is used

       -o or --create-overview
              Creates and overview for the output image

       -p or --end-sample <n>
              The end sample you wish to copy from the input. If none is given then max sample is used

       -q or --compression-quality <n>
              Uses compression.  Valid for jpeg type.  default is 75 where 100 is best and 1 is worst

       -r or --res-level <n>
              Which res level to extract from the input: ex -r 1 will get res level 1

       -s or --start-sample <n>
              Which start sample do you wish to copy from the input.  If none is given then 0 is used

       -t or --create-thumbnail <n>
              Takes an argument which is the maximum pixel dimension desired.

       -w or --tile-width <n>
              Defines the tile width for the handlers that support tiled output

       Valid output writer types:

       tiff_strip   tiff_strip_band_separate   tiff_tiled   tiff_tiled_band_separate   jpeg   general_raster_bip
       general_raster_bil        general_raster_bsq        general_raster_bip_envi       general_raster_bil_envi
