NAME

i.rgb.his - Transforms raster maps from RGB (Red-Green-Blue) color space to HIS (Hue-Intensity-Saturation) color space.

KEYWORDS

imagery, color transformation, RGB, HIS, IHS

SYNOPSIS

i.rgb.his
i.rgb.his --help
i.rgb.his red=name green=name blue=name hue=name intensity=name saturation=name [--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]

Flags:

--overwrite: Allow output files to overwrite existing files
--help: Print usage summary
--verbose: Verbose module output
--quiet: Quiet module output
--ui: Force launching GUI dialog

Parameters:

red=name [required]: Name of input raster map (red)
green=name [required]: Name of input raster map (green)
blue=name [required]: Name of input raster map (blue)
hue=name [required]: Name for output raster map (hue)
intensity=name [required]: Name for output raster map (intensity)
saturation=name [required]: Name for output raster map (saturation)

DESCRIPTION

i.rgb.his is an image processing program that processes three input raster map layers as red, green, and blue components and produces three output raster map layers representing the hue, intensity, and saturation of the data. The output raster map layers are created by a standard red-green-blue (RGB) to hue-intensity-saturation (HIS) color transformation. Each output raster map layer is given a linear gray scale color table. The current geographic region definition and mask settings are respected.
