cfastie "Pat, this is great progress. It looks like you stitched a 360 panorama. Two seconds is really quick. It might be hard to settle the camera for the ..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "nbawawa, Yes there is a lot of potentially confusing information in this research note. The note is about a very special case in which photosynthe..." | Read more » over 10 years ago

cfastie " ...the NIR reflectance of the target affects how much the red/green/blue bayer mosaic filter allows through to the sensor. Roolark, I would thin..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "I guess it depends which camera and spectrometer you want to connect. A good approach might be to make a 3D printable Ebert. That could work with m..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "If you have Garmin GPS units, there might be a better way for students to georeference photos. If the Garmin units save track logs, with a waypoint..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "Thanks for the link. For my ghost hunting, I have been buying PowerShot A590s for $20-$40, plus a $5 filter tube that snaps on, plus an $8 IR filte..." | Read more » over 10 years ago

cfastie "Hi Kendrick90, You're right that single camera systems have their limitations. The Wratten 25A camera produces a very good NIR channel (blue) with ..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "What is the additional step to get a reflectance value? You are estimating the brightness of the reflected light arriving at the camera by using a ..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "How close is this to what you are trying to do? NDVI depends on the difference between two values: the amount of near infrared light (in a parti..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "Ned, From Mary’s scans, you knew the reflectance of your colored targets for every visible and near infrared wavelength. But it looks like you used..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "Pat, That's a nice series of the construction site. It will be good to see those lined up in a sequence of some kind. That's the first time I have..." | Read more » over 10 years ago

cfastie "The blue channel (NIR) is a little bright in the 19 photo (and the others as well). There are lots of pixels with 255 for blue, so the dynamic rang..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "It makes sense that 26 has more difference between red and blue. The transmission cutoff is farther toward the NIR end of the spectrum, so less red..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
