I am trying to get familiar with the Orfeo Toolbox in order to understand how the different segmentation options work, since I will need to segment images for my work. So, I am completely new to OTB.
I tried using the tool for segmentation-cc, giving as input a stack of layers from Landsat8. However, I get some errors that I don’t know how to interpret.
First, when I try to run the tool, I get this:
If I press OK, another window opens, with more detailed parameters to set. Then, if I don’t change any of the options and just press OK again, I get this message:
You can’t run OTB modules in SNAP without installing the OTB executables first.
Therefore SNAP asks you where they are.
OTB_BIN_DIR and the path to the corresponding module have to be set first.
Thank you for your reply.
I had found the post but I thought it was old. I will follow those instructions and see if everything works fine. I will let you know!
Hi! I do not know if you have solved this problem but I found a solution: you need to create a Environment variable called OTB_BIN_DIR and as value put the full path to the bin folder of orpheo.
What other Orfeo functionalities are people frequently using? I think we should avoid creating dependencies to an external software so it would be best to port the most widely used things into SNAP itself.
I agree. I think you have quite a lot of other plans with SNAP and I see nothing wrong in using SNAP outcomes in other software as well . I personally would rather stick to the core funcitionalities and try to improve them instead of, as you say, becoming dependent from external packages. If they work as adapters, this is fine.
OTB Pan-sharpening is a good addition to the tools of SNAP however…
Hi ,
I have the same problem when I use pan-sharpening,Ireally applied all the steps published in this forum but without result, hope there is any help
