RAW2TIFF(1) LibTIFF RAW2TIFF(1) NAME raw2tiff - create a TIFF file from a raw data file SYNOPSIS raw2tiff [ options ] *input.raw output.tif DESCRIPTION raw2tiff converts a raw byte sequence into TIFF. By default, the TIFF image is created with data samples packed (PlanarConfiguration=1), com- pressed with the PackBits algorithm (Compression=32773), and with each strip no more than 8 kilobytes. These characteristics can overridden, or explicitly specified with the options described below. OPTIONS -H number Size of input image file header in bytes (0 by default). This amount of data just will be skipped from the start of file while reading. -w number Width of input image in pixels (can be guessed, see Guessing the image geometry below). option -b number number of bands in input image (1 by default). -d datatype type of samples in input image, where datatype may be one of: +-----------+----------------------------+ | Data type | Description | +-----------+----------------------------+ | byte | 8-bit unsigned integer | | | (default) | +-----------+----------------------------+ | short | 16-bit unsigned integer | +-----------+----------------------------+ | long | 32-bit unsigned integer | +-----------+----------------------------+ | sbyte | 8-bit signed integer | +-----------+----------------------------+ | sshort | 16-bit signed integer | +-----------+----------------------------+ | slong | 32-bit signed integer | +-----------+----------------------------+ | float | 32-bit IEEE floating point | +-----------+----------------------------+ | double | 64-bit IEEE floating point | +-----------+----------------------------+ -i config type of sample interleaving in input image, where config may be one of: +---------------+----------------------------+ | Configuration | Description | +---------------+----------------------------+ | pixel | pixel interleaved data | | | (default) | +---------------+----------------------------+ | band | band interleaved data. | +---------------+----------------------------+ -p photo photometric interpretation (color space) of the input image, where photo may be one of: -------------------------------------------- | Photometric | Description | +-------------+----------------------------+ | miniswhite | white color represented | | | with 0 value | +-------------+----------------------------+ | minisblack | black color represented | | | with 0 value (default) | +-------------+----------------------------+ | rgb | image has RGB color model | +-------------+----------------------------+ | cmyk | image has CMYK (separated) | | | color model | +-------------+----------------------------+ | ycbcr | image has YCbCr color | | | model | +-------------+----------------------------+ | cielab | image has CIE L*a*b color | | | model | +-------------+----------------------------+ | icclab | image has ICC L*a*b color | | | model | +-------------+----------------------------+ | itulab | image has ITU L*a*b color | | | model | +-------------+----------------------------+ -s swap bytes fetched from the input file. -L input data has LSB2MSB bit order (default). -M input data has MSB2LSB bit order. -c Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: -c none for no compression, -c packbits for the PackBits compres- sion algorithm (the default), -c jpeg for the baseline JPEG com- pression algorithm, -c zip for the Deflate compression algo- rithm, -c lzw for Lempel-Ziv & Welch. GUESSING THE IMAGE GEOMETRY raw2tif can guess image width and height in case one or both of these parameters are not specified. If you omit one of those parameters, the complementary one will be calculated based on the file size (taking into account header size, number of bands and data type). If you omit both parameters, the statistical approach will be used. Utility will compute correlation coefficient between two lines at the image center using several appropriate line sizes and the highest absolute value of the coefficient will indicate the right line size. That is why you should be cautious with the very large images, because guessing process may take a while (depending on your system performance). Of course, the utility can't guess the header size, number of bands and data type, so it should be specified manually. If you don't know anything about your image, just try with the several combinations of those options. There is no magic, it is just a mathematical statistics, so it can be wrong in some cases. But for most ordinary images guessing method will work fine.
