Normalize Scale Gradient: Fundamentals Edition

Published 06/12/2021

 

The NormalizeScaleGradient script, by John Murphy, is a leap forward in obtaining optimal Integrated images. By allowing this script to normalize images through a robust photometric method of determining scaling factors between images, the results yield properly image weighting, improved pixel rejection and a simplification of co-added (averaged) gradients. The sections below are for members of Fundamentals- a fuller demonstration and explanation of this script is in Horizons. 

 

Introduction and Setup  31 minutes

“The videos are outstanding. I've been using PI exclusively to process my images for some years now and accordingly have some experience and proficiency with the program. Nonetheless, found the videos to be very helpful and informative. Particularly useful are your easy to follow explanations of how the various tools and processes work. I feel certain that these tutorials will significantly shorten the learning curve for both new and experienced users.”
