NAME

      grdhisteq - Histogram equalization for grd files


SYNOPSIS

      grdhisteq in_grdfile [ -Gout_grdfile ] [ -Cn_cells ] [ -D ] [ -N[norm]
      ] [ -Q ] [ -V ]


DESCRIPTION

      grdhisteq allows the user to find the data values which divide a given
      grdfile into patches of equal area.  One common use of grdhisteq is in
      a kind of histogram equalization of an image.  In this application,
      the user might have a grdfile of flat topography with a mountain in
      the middle.  Ordinary gray shading of this file (using
      grdimage/grdview) with a linear mapping from topography to graytone
      will result in most of the image being very dark gray, with the
      mountain being almost white.  One could use grdhisteq to write to
      stdout an ASCII list of those data values which divide the range of
      the data into n_cells segments, each of which has an equal area in the
      image.  Using awk or makecpt one can take this output and build a cpt
      file; using the cptfile with grdimage will result in an image with all
      levels of gray occurring equally.  Alternatively, see grd2cpt.
           The second common use of grdhisteq is in writing a grdfile with
      statistics based on some kind of cumulative distribution function.  In
      this application, the output has relative highs and lows in the same
      (x,y) locations as the input file, but the values are changed to
      reflect their place in some cumulative distribution.  One example
      would be to find the lowest 10% of the data:  Take a grdfile, run
      grdhisteq and make a grdfile using n_cells = 10, and then contour the
      result to trace the 1 contour.  This will enclose the lowest 10% of
      the data, regardless of their original values.  Another example is in
      equalizing the output of grdgradient.  For shading purposes it is
      desired that the data have a smooth distribution, such as a gaussian.
      If you run grdhisteq on output from grdgradient and make a grdfile
      output with the Gaussian option, you will have a grdfile whose values
      are distributed according to a gaussian distribution with zero mean
      and unit variance.  The locations of these values will correspond to
      the locations of the input; that is, the most negative output value
      will be in the (x,y) location of the most negative input value, and so
      on.
           No space between the option flag and the associated arguments.
      Use upper case for the option flags and lower case for modifiers.

      in_grdfile
           2-D binary grd file to be equalized.



OPTIONS

      -C   Sets how many cells (or divisions) of data range to make.

      -D   Dump level information to standard output.

      -G   Name of output 2-D grd file.  Used with -N only.

      -N   Gaussian output.  Use with -G to make an output grdfile with
           standard normal scores.  Append norm to force the scores to fall
           in the <-1,+1> range [Default is standard normal scores].

      -Q   Use quadratic intensity scaling.  [Default is linear].

      -V   Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr
           [Default runs "silently"].


EXAMPLES

      To find the height intervals that devide the file heights.grd into 16
      divisions of equal area, try

      grdhisteq heights.grd -C16 -D > levels.d

      To make the poorly distributed intensities in the file raw_intens.grd
      suitable for use with grdimage or grdview, try

      grdhisteq raw_intens.grd -Gsmooth_intens.grd -N -V


RESTRICTIONS

      If you use grdhisteq to make a gaussian output for gradient shading in
      grdimage or grdview, you should be aware of the following:  the output
      will be in the range [-x, x], where x is based on the number of data
      in the input grdfile (nx * ny) and the cumulative gaussian
      distribution function F(x).  That is, let N = nx * ny.  Then x will be
      adjusted so that F(x) = (N - 1 + 0.5)/N.  Since about 68% of the
      values from a standard normal distribution fall within +/- 1, this
      will be true of the output grdfile.  But if N is very large, it is
      possible for x to be greater than 4.  Therefore, with the grdimage
      program clipping gradients to the range [-1, 1], you will get correct
      shading of 68% of your data, while 16% of them will be clipped to -1
      and 16% of them clipped to +1.  If this makes too much of the image
      too light or too dark, you should take the output of grdhisteq and
      rescale it using grdmath and multiplying by something less than 1.0,
      to shrink the range of the values, thus bringing more than 68% of the
      image into the range [-1, 1].  Alternatively, supply a normalization
      factor with -N.
