hi, i'm working on a project that fuses 2 images , one with a higher spatial resolution but grayscale and the other with lower spatial resolution but having spectral information. The fused output should be a hybrid and should have the qualities of both images. This fusion is done using a new method, where we explore the gridwise correspondence of the energy values sensed by the satellites while capturing the images. This is a small info about the project. So we're integrating this algorithm into gimp as a plugin. This plugin should be enabled only when the 2 input images are opened. So ne inputs are welcome and help me with my earlier doubts . thank you --- David Hodson <hodsond@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > manjunath s wrote: > > > 1.
