The larger the value, the stronger the contrast of the result image.

Adjust the saturation of the result image. The value range is [-100,100], and the default value is 0.0.

The larger the value, the stronger the saturation of the result image.

This parameter is available only when Mask Data is checked. If executing a production workflow, this parameter is not provided.

Specify the datasource where the mask dataset is located.

This parameter is available only when Mask Data is checked. If executing a production workflow, the mask data in True Color Output is used by default.

Specify the vector polygon dataset used as the mask. The dataset must contain an ImageName field, and the name must correspond to the current image name to be processed.

Set the resolution used for previewing the color balancing effect.

Lower resolution (larger downsampling factor) provides smoother but blurrier previews; higher resolution (smaller downsampling factor) provides slower but clearer previews. This setting is only for preview and does not affect the quality of the final output result.

The following options are provided:

• Downsample by 4 (default): The preview resolution is 1/4 of the original image.
• Downsample by 8: The preview resolution is 1/8 of the original image.
• Downsample by 16: The preview resolution is 1/16 of the original image.
• Downsample by 32: The preview resolution is 1/32 of the original image.
• Downsample by 64: The preview resolution is 1/64 of the original image.
• Downsample by 128: The preview resolution is 1/128 of the original image.
• Downsample by 256: The preview resolution is 1/256 of the original image.
• Downsample by 512: The preview resolution is 1/512 of the original image.

Set the storage path for the result image after color balancing processing.

If executing a production workflow, the Processing path parameter in Set Image Path or Add orthophoto is used, and it cannot be edited.

Set the method used for resampling during the imagery process.

Nearest, Bilinear, and Cubic are provided. The default value is Bilinear. For more method introductions, please refer to Resampling Method.

Specify the method for outputting the resulting image resolution. The following options are provided:

• Original resolution (default): Retains the original resolution of the input image.
• Fixed Value: Uses the input fixed value as the resolution of the output image.
• Custom: Specifies output resolutions separately for different satellite sensor types. After selecting this option, a dialog box will pop up for detailed settings. You can click the Add button on the toolbar in the dialog box to add a record; then click the cell in the Satellite sensor type column to select the sensor type; finally, enter the resolution corresponding to the sensor type in the Resolution column cell.
  Note:

  • If the corresponding satellite sensor type is not found, please select the USEDEFINE option. The system will use the resolution set for this option to output data of all satellite sensor types not listed in the list.
  • If processing image data of multiple satellite sensor types simultaneously (e.g., ZY3, GF-2, LandSat), but only setting the resolution for one satellite sensor type (e.g., only setting the resolution for ZY3), then images of other satellite sensor types (e.g., GF-2 and LandSat) will be output using their original resolution.

Set the storage type of the result image. The following options are provided:

• Not Set: Retains the original image format for output.
• Tiff/GeoTIFF (default): Indicates that the output result image is stored in Tiff/GeoTIFF format.
• Erdas Image: Indicates that the output result image is stored in Erdas Image format.
• PCIDSK: Indicates that the output result image is stored in PCIDSK format.

If executing a production workflow, the Output format parameter in Set Image Path or Add orthophoto is used, and it cannot be edited.

When Output format is Tiff/GeoTIFF, set the compression method for the output image.

NONE, DEFLATE, LZW, and JPEG are provided. The default value is NONE. For more method introductions, please refer to Compression method.

If executing a production workflow, the Compression method parameter in Set Image Path or Add orthophoto is used, and it cannot be edited.

If this parameter is checked, the result data will use the same image coordinate system as the input data. If not checked, the Output coordinate system parameter in Set Image Path or Add orthophoto is used, and it cannot be edited.

This parameter is available only when the function is launched from the Imagery tab -> DOM Data Production group -> Image Color Balancing.

Checked by default. After the function execution succeeds, the result data will be automatically added to the current map window for display.

Checked by default. Pyramids will be built for the output image data, thereby improving the zoom browsing speed and display performance of large-volume images.

If executing a production workflow, the Create Image Pyramid parameter in Set Image Path or Add orthophoto is used, and this parameter is not displayed.

This parameter is available only after Create Image Pyramid is checked.
