NAME

       ossim-create-bitmask - ossim-create-bitmask

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.
