    In computer science, Orfeo Toolbox (OTB) is a software library for processing images from Earth observation satellites.[1]

    OTB was initiated by the French space agency (CNES)[1] in 2006. The software is released under a free licence; a number of contributors outside CNES are taking part in development and integrating into other projects.[2]

    The library was originally targeted at high resolution images acquired by the Orfeo constellation: Pléiades and Cosmo-Skymed, but it also handles other sensors.

    Purpose

    [edit | edit source]

    OTB provides:[3]

    Languages and interaction with other software

    [edit | edit source]

    OTB is a C++ library, based on Insight toolkit (ITK). Bindings are developed for Python.[13] A method to use OTB components within IDL/ENVI has been published. One of the OTB user defined a procedure to use the library capabilities from MATLAB.[14]

    Since late 2009,[15] some modules are developed as processing plugins[16] for QGIS. Modules for classification, segmentation, hill shading have provided. This effort relies only on volunteers.

    OTB algorithms were available in QGIS through the processing framework Sextante. Since March 2024,[17] a QGIS plugin is now available in QGIS catalog to work with an installed OTB software.

    Applications

    [edit | edit source]

    Additionally to the library, several applications with GUI are distributed. These application enable interactive segmentation, orthorectification, classification, image registration, etc...

    Monteverdi (version 1 and 2)

    [edit | edit source]

    The OTB-Applications package makes available a set of simple software tools . It supports raster and vector data and integrates most of the already existing OTB applications. The architecture takes advantage of the streaming and multi-threading capabilities of the OTB pipeline. It also uses features such as processing on demand and automagic file format I/O. The application is called Monteverdi.[18][19]

    In 2013, Monteverdi software was revamped into a new software called Monteverdi2.

    Since OTB version 9.0 Monterverdi is no longer packaged and supported. However a QGIS plugin allow to use otb application with GUI.

    License

    [edit | edit source]

    OTB was initially distributed under the French Open Source license CeCILL (similar and compatible with the GNU GPL) and is now available under the Apache 2.0 license.

    History

    [edit | edit source]

    The development started in January 2006 [20] with the first release in July 2006.[21] The development version is publicly accessible.[22]
