a standard VICAR output dataset
(SL,SS,NL,NS) starting line,starting sample,number of lines, number of samples
The starting line of the size field
The starting sample of the size field
The number of lines of the size field
The number of samples of the size field
Large characters, 14 lines by 12 samples, are used Default is that characters 7 lines by 6 samples are drawn.
The three possible keywords (BLACK, WHITE, and MODULATE) control the DN used in character and line definition. BLACK produces 0 DN characters; WHITE produces 255 DN characters; MODULATE produces 0 DN characters if the average DN under the text is greater than 128, 255 DN characters otherwise. If the parameter ADD is used, it supercedes these keywords. The default is WHITE.
BACKGRND=DNVALUE A one pixel (two pixels if large is specified) border around the text string and the background for the text string is set to DNVALUE.
ADD=DN The DN specified will be added to the data to create the text. If specified, this value supercedes WHITE, BLACK, or MODULATE keywords.
TEXT=(SL1,SS1, SL2,SS2, ...) These are the coordinates for positioning the associated string of text. Each pair of numbers specify the line and sample where the upper left corner of the associated string is to be located. If the parameter BACKGRND is specified, the upper left corner of the border area around the text string is positioned at these coordinates. This means the text string itself will start 1 pixel (2 if LARGE is specified) down and to the right of these coordinates. Up to 100 pairs of numbers may be specified.
STRING=("string1","string2", ...)
These are the text strings to be inserted into the image at the positions
specified by the associated TEXT values. Up to 100 strings may be
specified. Each string may have up to 100 characters.
AREA=(SL1,SS1,EL1,EL1, SL2,SS2,EL2,ES2, ...) Specifies that rectangles with upper left corners at SLn,SSn and lower right corners at ELn,ESn will be drawn. Up to 75 rectangles may be specified, each rectangle being specified by a group of four numbers.
