    LANDSAT THERMAL to COLOR

    Posted by Glenn Tak on April 30, 2008 at 11:10 pm

    Anyone have any idea how to convert LANDSAT ETM images from their natural THERMAL imaging look to something representing real earth colors.

    I am creating 3D Maps and would like to utilize these texture maps.

    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    TThanks

    TAK

    You’ll probably need to apply some processes to the individual channels in the image, perhaps using Adjustment > Calculations. Can you post a sample image here?

    Unfotunately I have no way to post at the moment. From what I’ve read these images are actually created using 3 (sometimes more) Gray Scale images that are then combined.

    Those three separate images supposedly relate to RGB channels. However, I’ve only been able to find the composite photos and not the separated Grayscales.

    If you’re interested do a Google image search with LANDSAT MOSAIC.

    The picts that are sort of a mix of Purplish Red and brilliant green are what these things look like.

    Thanks
