Suri Pluma is a satellite image processing tool and visualizer.

Suri Pluma project can open the most common image formats without importing to an internal format and minimizing the memory required for visualization.

It is designed to be modular and extensible. It has a meassurement tool (distance and areas with error estimation) and geographical and map coordinate information.

Designed with state of the art techniques and tools, it offers means to extract information in easy and intuitive ways, offering to the user quantitative and qualitative information immediatly, taking full profit of the different satellite sources.

It provides simplified access to the different data formats and exports to the most common and spreaded formats. It takes full advantage of the hardware resources, with very low minimal requirements.

The goal is to provide the user with a high quality software, bringing a simple tool for image processing and remote sensing.

Here are some key features of "Suri Pluma":
User Interface

Windows based single-document user interface (SDI) for more flexibility.
Intuitive graphic user interface, making the tasks simple for both beginner and advanced users.

Input file formats

Automatic opening of Fast Format images (including SAC-C and Landsat), Tiff and GeoTiff distribuited by CONAE, as well as the different formats used by GLCF and other propietary formats as the ENVI format. Also supports standard graphic formats like Jpg, Png and Bmp.
Image type auto detect. There is no need to import for visualization the data with known formats.
Direct access to the different data types without conversion.
Immediate opening images independently from their size.
Opening many images at once without memory overflow.
Supports generic RAW binary format with manual definition of parameters.

Image analysis:

Area and distances measurement tools available.
Planar coordinate and pixel value displaying in real-time.

Image visualization:

RGB color composite viewing capabilites.
Grayscale viewing capabilites.
Zoom In/Out capabilites using the wheel on the mouse.
Flexible navigation using Scroll/Zoom windows.

Image enhancement:

Linear and nonlinear contrast enhancement.
Histogram equalization.

Geographic location:

Automatic recognition of georeferenced meta-data of the different formats, making possible the search of areas of interest by geographic coordinates.

Export images:

Exports to different image formats, making Suri compatible with other analysis tools. Available on Suri Pluma V1.1.

Minimal requirements:

Takes advantage of the hardware resources, making possible the visualization and analysis of big images in low-end hardware with great efficiency.

Available platforms:

Suri is developed in C++ in Linux and Windows environments simultaneously and distribuited in both systems.
