Parameter File

Our goal will be to generate a set of maplets over the NFT site plus 1/2 maplet boarder at a GSD that is 1/2 of the requested NavCam pixel size. Obviously, images 27-30 will not work.

We will create one CSV file for each week. Then this file will be exported and run through a program (TBD) that will create the input files for bigmap and make_scriptT. The general format will be string-ID-GSD.sufix.

When we run the program (TBD), it will generate the bigmap input and seed files for all records in the file (which should be about 18). Then we can use these as the inputs for the base tiling, intermediate tiling, and final tiling. We assume that 14cm can jump to 5cm and that 14cm exists everywhere.

Assuming the standard for NFT features of width of 100, we will use a Q=50 (width of 101). We will tile at a Q=150, which would give 1/2 a maplet over all the edges. The core NFT region would be covered by a 3x3 and with the "margin" it will become 5x5, which means there is a full four maplets over the exact NFT unit.

Each week, we will receive a NFT feature description of less than 20 features. We must take these definitions and fold them into a CSV file that includes the following

NFT ID

Picture name (raw)

SPC Image Name

Sample

Line

GSD [cm]

Q (half width)

Running

Start in the working directory and copy the control file that you created into the nftConfig directory

FILE=feature-img11

relink.sh support/$FILE nftConfig/$FILE

Build scripts

python /opt/local/spc/bin/nftRip.py nftConfig/$FILE

This creates the nftCtl directory. It includes the bigmap definition for tiling and the seed file for the resolution.

Based on the resolution, one to four files are created (options are: 5cm, 2cm 1cm and 1/2GSD). Start with the lowest resolution, the largest number, and do the rest of the procedures on them.
