[mapserver-users] Reprojection image quality

[Benoît Andrieu]

Hi all !

I am trying to play with the parameters of gdalwarp.

It seems that the tps option gives better output result than omitting this parameter.
I just tried on a subset of my data and the resulting picture is very nice comparing to the previous. Right now, I am trying it on the whole dataset.

By the way, could someone explain what it really does ? 
Is this a better/different algorithm ?

-tps:
Force use of thin plate spline transformer based on available GCPs. 

Benoît

  Hello guys !

  I currently have some problems in the quality of the images produced by GDAL/Mapserver.

  We are using MapServer to serve raster imagery to NASA Worldwind.
  Our files are in UTM and Worldwind needs WGS84 images so we do reprojection on the fly.
  Using this, we can clearly see image quality artefacts between Worldwind (using WGS84, no choice) and a custom internal tool (showing original data).

  I can reproduce the problem using gdalwarp tool using a very simple command line :
  gdalwarp -multi -t_srs EPSG:4326 -srcnodata 0 -dstnodata 0 -r near %FileSrc%/*_p_*8bit.tif %FileDest%

  You can see the result on http://benoit.andrieu.free.fr/mapserver/Clipboard02.png : on the right, the original image and on the left, the resulting output.

  I suspect that using some others settings, I could improve the quality on gdalwarp's output in a first time and on mapserver's output in a second time but I don't know where to start...

  So if anyone could help or suggest anything, he will be welcome !!!

  Thanks in advance,

  Benoît
