NAME

       vig_optimize - Optimise photometric parameters

SYNOPSIS

       vig_optimize [options] -o output.pto input.pto

DESCRIPTION

       Photometric calculation can be performed on the command-line with the vig_optimize tool. This functionally is configured via 'v' variable
       lines in the .pto project file in a similar way to the autooptimiser tool:

       The camera response curve is simplified using the EMoR sensor model which reduces the variation to five numbers, these are the Ra, Rb, Rc,
       Rd & Re image (i) parameters (the default values of 0.0 are equivalent to an 'average' generic sensor).

       The vignetting model is represented by a polynomial with four parameters: Va (this is always 1.0 and doesn't need to be optimised) and Vb,
       Vc & Vd (which default to 0.0 - equivalent to no vignetting). The vignetting centre can also be different from the geometrical centre, this
       is specified by Vx & Vy (both default to 0.0).

       Exposure (EV) is represented by a single value Ev (defaults 0.0, equivalent to no-change).

       The white balance is represented by multipliers for the red and blue channels Er and Eb (the defaults of 1.0 are equivalent to no-change).

       A typical 'v' variable line configuration would look like this, i.e. optimise camera response curve and vignetting for image 0 and exposure
       for images 1, 2, 3 and 4:

	 v Ra0 Rb0 Rc0 Rd0 Re0 Vb0 Vc0 Vd0
	 v Ev1 Ev2 Ev3 Ev4

       (vignetting centre and white balance are left unchanged)

OPTIONS

       General options:

       -o file
	   Write results to output project

       -v  Verbose, print progress messages

       -p n
	   Number of points to extract

       -r  Extract random point (faster, but less accurate)

       -s level
	   Work on downscaled images, every step halves width and height

       -h  Display help summary.

       Expert and debugging options:

       -i file
	   Read corresponding points from file

       -w file
	   Dump corresponding points to file

NAME

       autooptimiser - Optimize image positions

SYNOPSIS

       autooptimiser [options] project.pto

       (- can be specified to read the project from stdio.)

DESCRIPTION

       autooptimiser works similarly to PToptimizer but with extra command-line options.

       It is also different in that PToptimizer appends its output onto the input file in the form of 'o' lines which need further processing.
       autooptimiser simply updates the project and writes it to a new file.

OPTIONS

       -o file.pto
	   Output file. If omitted, stdout is used.

       Optimisation options (if not specified, no optimisation takes place):

       -a  Auto align mode, includes various optimisation stages, depending on the amount and distribution of the control points

       -p  Pairwise optimisation of yaw, pitch and roll, starting from first image

       -n  Optimize parameters specified in script file (like PToptimizer).

       Post-processing options:

       -l  Level horizon (works best for horizontal panoramas)

       -s  Automatically select a suitable output projection and size

       Other options:

       -q  Quiet operation (no progress is reported)

       -v HFOV
	   Specify horizontal field of view of input images. Used if the .pto file contains invalid HFOV values (autopano-SIFT writes .pto files
	   with invalid HFOV)

       When -a, -l, and -s options are used together, an operation similar to the one of the "Align" button in hugin is performed.
