Use case 12 : Superimpose two images with homologous
points
Menu File > Open
./theme2/IM2/Extraits/Im2_p_extrait.tif
Menu File > Open
./theme2/IM2/Extraits/Im2_c_extrait.tif
Menu Geometry > Homologous points extraction
Fix image : PAN
Moving image : XS
Select homologous points in the bottom windows
➢ Add / Evaluate / Guess

=> Output : XS image at the same size and resolution than the
panchromatic one. Images fusion is now possible.

Use Case 13 : pan-sharpen a multispectral image (image
fusion)

Filtering
Pan-sharpen an image
➢ Requires Panchromatic and Multispectral input images at the same
resolution
Menu Filtering > Pan-sharpen an image
➢ Enter PAN and XS image well registered
Ortho-images of PAN + ortho-image of XS
Ortho-image PAN + superimpose of XS
XS resampled on PAN image with Homologous points
