Level 2 Help for CORRELATE1D

INP

Two input images in the order:
1. Left stereo image.
2. Right stereo image.


OUT

Two Output disparity images in the order:
1. Line disparity.
2. Sample disparity.


NLW

nlw=  The line length of the template kernel.
      The template is the area selected from the left image and correlated
      over the right image search area. 
      The template is only moved horizontally.
      Must be an odd integer. 
      Defaults to 1


NSW

nsw=  The sample width of the template kernel. 
      The template is the area selected from the left image and correlated
      over the right image search area. Note that the left and right
      halves of the template are correlated independently. The resulting
      correlation quality is the larger of the two. This means that NSW
      is only 1/2 of the actual width used.
      The template is only moved horizontally.
      Must be an odd integer. 
      Defaults to 45


MOTION

motion= The maximum permitted horizontal motion of the template in the 
        search area from it's initial location in each direction.
        Thus the search area will be of width nsw+2*smotion.
        Searching begins from the initial offset and skew.
        Defaults to 10.


QUALITY

quality= The minimum acceptable correlation quality for a point to have
         in order to be accepted. 
         0 means no correlation at all.
         1 means perfect correlation.
         Defaults to 0.7


OFFSET

offset= The integer line offset between the 2 input images. 
        A positive offset of n indicate the right search area is to be shifted 
        down n lines relative to the left template in order to align the two
        input images.
        If defaulted, this parameter is computed by the program.


GEOM

geom=M,N
      Geom controls the way the program computes the initial geometric
      relationship between the 2 input images, resulting in the automatic
      computation of the vertica OFFSET parameter and of a table of
      horizontal shifts for each image line.
      M is the maximum permitted vertical offset search used to determine the
      OFFSET parameter. The search is limited to +- M lines.
      N is the template width used to correlate the data at the center of 
      each image line.
      The defaults are geom=6,120. 
      The vertical image shift operation is performed only if the 
      OFFSET keyword is defaulted.


THRESH

thresh= The threshold which determines the permissible disagreement in 
        horizontal shift between the direct and inverse correlations.
        Tiepoints with a disagreement of over THRESH are set to zero in the 
        output images.
        Note: When thresh gets below about 0.8 then many rejections 
              occur. This implies that the precision of the algorithm is
              beginning to be tested rather than the precision of the data.
        Defaults to 1.0
