<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">From searching online, I have found that the i.pansharpen module doesn’t take 16 bit imagery (which Landsat imagery is) but rather 8 bit. I found this link (<a href="http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/39174/how-to-color-balance-false-composites-of-pan-sharpened-landsat-images-in-grass/67319#67319">http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/39174/how-to-color-balance-false-composites-of-pan-sharpened-landsat-images-in-grass/67319#67319</a>)

</span></span><![endif]>When I run it on the bands produced after running the i.landsat.toar module, I get numbers such as min=-0.00813278402972343 and max=1.58301384751301. After rescaling the images to 0-255 and proceeding with step 3 I end up with an entirely
 white image. <o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>However, if I rescale the original bands which all have ranges of 0-65535, to 0-255, then pansharpen, the result is a washed out version of the natural color image. I believe this has been pansharpened, but the colors are off. I also
 attempted to color balance the pansharpened bands but was unsuccessful as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Am I rescaling the images incorrectly or is there another step I am getting wrong? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
