In computer science, Orfeo Toolbox (OTB) is a software library for processing images from Earth observation satellites.[1]

OTB was initiated by the French space agency (CNES)[1] in 2006. The software is released under a free licence; a number of contributors outside CNES are taking part in development and integrating into other projects.[2]

The library was originally targeted at high resolution images acquired by the Orfeo constellation: Pléiades and Cosmo-Skymed, but it also handles other sensors.

Purpose

OTB provides:[3]

  • Image access: read/write access for most remote sensing image formats (using GDAL), meta-data access, visualization[4]
  • Data access: vector data access (shapefile, kml), DEM model, lidar data [5]
  • Filtering: blurring, denoising, enhancement for optical or radar data [6]
  • Feature extraction: texture computations including Haralick, SFS, Pantex, Edge density, points of interest, alignments, lines, SIFT, SURF[7]
  • Image segmentation: region growing, watershed, level sets [8]
  • Classification: K-means, SVM, Markov random fields and access to all OpenCV machine learning algorithms[9]
  • Change detection[10]
  • Stereo reconstruction from images
  • Orthorectification and map projections (using ossim) [11]
  • Radiometric indices (vegetation, water, soil) [12]
  • Object-based segmentation and filtering
  • PCA computation
  • Visualization: a flexible visualization system, customizable via plugins;

Languages and interaction with other software

OTB is a C++ library, based on Insight toolkit (ITK). Bindings are developed for Python.[13] A method to use OTB components within IDL/ENVI has been published. One of the OTB user defined a procedure to use the library capabilities from MATLAB.[14]

Since late 2009,[15] some modules are developed as processing plugins[16] for QGIS. Modules for classification, segmentation, hill shading have provided. This effort relies only on volunteers.

OTB algorithms are now available in QGIS through the processing framework Sextante.

Applications

Additionally to the library, several applications with GUI are distributed. These application enable interactive segmentation, orthorectification, classification, image registration, etc...

Monteverdi (version 1 and 2)

The OTB-Applications package makes available a set of simple software tools . It supports raster and vector data and integrates most of the already existing OTB applications. The architecture takes advantage of the streaming and multi-threading capabilities of the OTB pipeline. It also uses features such as processing on demand and automagic file format I/O. The application is called Monteverdi,[17][18]

In 2013, Monteverdi software was revamped into a new software called Monteverdi2.

License

OTB was initially distributed under the French Open Source license CeCILL (similar and compatible with the GNU GPL) and is now available under the Apache 2.0 license.

History

The development started in January 2006 [19] with the first release in July 2006.[20] The development version is publicly accessible.[21]
