cfastie "Jeff, Our goal is to have 1) a red channel which records how much NIR is reflecting from plants, and 2) a blue channel which records how much blue ..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "Ned, The G11 photos in the panel above were recorded in camera raw. According to my naïve model of what camera raw does, it should be possible to t..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "The relative amounts of NIR vs visible light in each channel is definitely a big and important unknown. The camera can't do anything to change that..." | Read more » over 10 years ago

cfastie "kykytos, This is a really good question. Lots of blue light can pass through a #2007 filter, so a white light viewed through the filter will appear..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "Maybe try this brute force version with an infrablue photo with healthy plants in it: 1) Select an area of foliage. 2) Calculate means for both ..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "kykytos, you are correct. The equation (NIR-R)/(NIR+R) is the standard one for NDVI. Substituting blue for red as in (NIR-B)/(NIR+B) also works wel..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
cfastie "TedF, Good design. Just drag and drop photos to where the cursor is in the edit window. Blocks (pulleys) will help a lot to keep it level, especial..." | Read more » over 10 years ago
