<p>These functions are useful for joining many small images together to make
one large image. They can cope with unstable contrast and arbitary sub-image
layout, but will not do any geometric correction. Geometric errors should
be removed before using these functions.</p>
<p>The mosaicing functions can be grouped into layers:</p>
<p>The lowest level functions are <code class="function">im_correl()</code> and <a class="link" href="libvips-mosaicing.html#vips-merge" title="vips_merge ()"><code class="function">vips_merge()</code></a>.
<code class="function">im_correl()</code> 
searches a large image for a small sub-image, returning
the position of the best sub-image match. <a class="link" href="libvips-mosaicing.html#vips-merge" title="vips_merge ()"><code class="function">vips_merge()</code></a> 
joins two images together
left-right or up-down with a smooth seam.</p>
<p>Next, <a class="link" href="libvips-mosaicing.html#vips-mosaic" title="vips_mosaic ()"><code class="function">vips_mosaic()</code></a> use the
search function plus the two low-level merge operations to join two images 
given just an approximate overlap as a start point. </p>
<p>The functions <code class="function">im_lrmosaic1()</code> and <code class="function">im_tbmosaic1()</code> are
first-order
analogues of the basic mosaic functions: they take two approximate 
tie-points and use
them to rotate and scale the right-hand or bottom image before starting to
join.</p>
<p>Finally, <a class="link" href="libvips-mosaicing.html#vips-globalbalance" title="vips_globalbalance ()"><code class="function">vips_globalbalance()</code></a> can be used to remove contrast differences in 
a mosaic
which has been assembled with these functions. It takes the mosaic apart,
measures image contrast differences along the seams, finds a set of
correction factors which will minimise these differences, and reassembles
the mosaic.
<code class="function">im_remosaic()</code> uses the
same
techniques, but will reassemble the image from a different set of source
images.</p>

            <em class="parameter"><code>...</code></em>);</pre>
<p>Optional arguments:</p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>mblend</code></em>
: maximum blend size </p>
<p>This operation joins two images left-right (with <em class="parameter"><code>ref</code></em>
 on the left) or
up-down (with <em class="parameter"><code>ref</code></em>
 above) with a smooth seam.</p>
<p>If the number of bands differs, one of the images 
must have one band. In this case, an n-band image is formed from the 
one-band image by joining n copies of the one-band image together, and then
the two n-band images are operated upon.</p>
<p>The two input images are cast up to the smallest common type (see table 
Smallest common format in </p>
<a class="link" href="libvips-arithmetic.html" title="arithmetic">arithmetic</a>).
<p><em class="parameter"><code>dx</code></em>
 and <em class="parameter"><code>dy</code></em>
 give the displacement of <em class="parameter"><code>sec</code></em>
 relative to <em class="parameter"><code>ref</code></em>
, in other words,
the vector to get from the origin of <em class="parameter"><code>sec</code></em>
 to the origin of <em class="parameter"><code>ref</code></em>
, in other
words, <em class="parameter"><code>dx</code></em>
 will generally be a negative number. </p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>mblend</code></em>
 limits  the  maximum width of the
blend area.  A value of "-1" means "unlimited". The two images are blended 
with a raised cosine. </p>
<p>Pixels with all bands equal to zero are "transparent", that
is, zero pixels in the overlap area do not  contribute  to  the  merge.
This makes it possible to join non-rectangular images.</p>

<p>This operation joins two images top-bottom (with <em class="parameter"><code>sec</code></em>

 at the bottom)
given an approximate pair of tie-points. <em class="parameter"><code>sec</code></em>
 is scaled and rotated as
necessary before the join.</p>
<p>Before performing the transformation, the tie-points are improved by

mosaic1 of size <em class="parameter"><code>hwindow</code></em>
 to <em class="parameter"><code>ref</code></em>
. </p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>mblend</code></em>
 limits  the  maximum size of the
blend area.  A value of "-1" means "unlimited". The two images are blended 
with a raised cosine. </p>
<p>Pixels with all bands equal to zero are "transparent", that
is, zero pixels in the overlap area do not  contribute  to  the  merge.
This makes it possible to join non-rectangular images.</p>
<p>If the number of bands differs, one of the images 
must have one band. In this case, an n-band image is formed from the 
one-band image by joining n copies of the one-band image together, and then
the two n-band images are operated upon.</p>
<p>The two input images are cast up to the smallest common type (see table

<p>vips_globalbalance() can be used to remove contrast differences in 
an assembled mosaic.</p>
<p>It reads the History field attached to <em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em>
 and builds a list of the source
images that were used to make the mosaic and the position that each ended
up at in the final image.</p>
<p>It opens each of the source images in turn and extracts all parts which
overlap with any of the other images. It finds the average values in the
overlap areas and uses least-mean-square to find a set of correction
factors which will minimise overlap differences. It uses <em class="parameter"><code>gamma</code></em>
 to
gamma-correct the source images before calculating the factors. A value of
1.0 will stop this.</p>
<p>Each of the source images is transformed with the appropriate correction 
factor, then the mosaic is reassembled. <em class="parameter"><code>out</code></em>
 is <a class="link" href="libvips-VipsImage.html#VIPS-FORMAT-FLOAT:CAPS"><span class="type">VIPS_FORMAT_FLOAT</span></a>, but 
if <em class="parameter"><code>int_output</code></em>
 is set, the output image is the same format as the input
images.  </p>
<p>There are some conditions that must be met before this operation can work:
the source images must all be present under the filenames recorded in the
history on <em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em>
, and the mosaic must have been built using only operations in
this package.</p>

<p>vips_remosaic() works rather as <a class="link" href="libvips-mosaicing.html#vips-globalbalance" title="vips_globalbalance ()"><code class="function">vips_globalbalance()</code></a>. It takes apart the
mosaiced image <em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em>
 and rebuilds it, substituting images.</p>
<p>Unlike <a class="link" href="libvips-mosaicing.html#vips-globalbalance" title="vips_globalbalance ()"><code class="function">vips_globalbalance()</code></a>, images are substituted based on their file‐
names.  The  rightmost  occurence  of the string <em class="parameter"><code>old_str</code></em>
 is swapped
for <em class="parameter"><code>new_str</code></em>
, that file is opened, and that image substituted  for
the old image.</p>
<p>It's convenient for multispectral images. You can mosaic one band, then
use that mosaic as a template for mosaicing the others automatically.</p>
