Image processing (sunpy.image)

sunpy.image contains routines to process images (i.e. numpy arrays). The routines in this submodule are generally exposed through map-specific functions in other places.

sunpy.image Package

sunpy.image.resample Module

Image resampling methods.

Functions

resample(orig, dimensions[, method, center, ...])

Returns a new numpy.ndarray that has been resampled up or down.

reshape_image_to_4d_superpixel(img, ...)

Re-shape the two dimension input image into a a four dimensional array whose first and third dimensions express the number of original pixels in the "x" and "y" directions that form one superpixel.

sunpy.image.transform Module

Functions for geometrical image transformation and warping.

Functions

affine_transform(image, rmatrix[, order, ...])

Rotates, shifts and scales an image.

sunpy.image.coalignment Module

This module provides routines for the co-alignment of images and MapSequence.

Currently this module provides image co-alignment by template matching. Which is partially inspired by the SSWIDL routine tr_get_disp.pro.

In this implementation, the template matching is handled via the scikit-image routine skimage.feature.match_template.

Functions

calculate_shift(this_layer, template)

Calculates the pixel shift required to put the template in the "best" position on a layer.

clip_edges(data, yclips, xclips)

Clips off the "y" and "x" edges of a 2D array according to a list of pixel values.

calculate_clipping(y, x)

Return the upper and lower clipping values for the "y" and "x" directions.

match_template_to_layer(layer, template)

Calculate the correlation array that describes how well the template matches the layer.

find_best_match_location(corr)

Calculate an estimate of the location of the peak of the correlation result in image pixels.

get_correlation_shifts(array)

Estimate the location of the maximum of a fit to the input array.

parabolic_turning_point(y)

Find the location of the turning point for a parabola y(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, given input values y(-1), y(0), y(1).

check_for_nonfinite_entries(layer_image, ...)

Issue a warning if there is any nonfinite entry in the layer or template images.

apply_shifts(mc, yshift, xshift[, clip])

Apply a set of pixel shifts to a MapSequence, and return a new MapSequence.

mapsequence_coalign_by_match_template(mc[, ...])

Co-register the layers in a MapSequence according to a template taken from that MapSequence.

calculate_match_template_shift(mc[, ...])

Calculate the arcsecond shifts necessary to co-register the layers in a MapSequence according to a template taken from that MapSequence.
