Spectral convolution Gaussian filter

1D Gaussian filter. The Gaussian filter is a filter with great smoothing properties. It is isotropic and does not produce artifacts.

This 1D Gaussian filter applies a weighted average to the values in the image. The weights are determined by a Gaussian distribution, which assigns higher weights to pixels closer to the center of the kernel and lower weights to pixels farther away. It is isotropic and does not produce artifacts.

Usage:

  1. Start the algorithm from the Processing Toolbox panel.

  2. Select the raster to process and modify the parameterization if necessary, then click run.

  3. Processed image in comparison to the original.

Parameters

Raster layer [raster]

Raster layer to be filtered.

Kernel [string]

Python code. See Gaussian1DKernel for information on different parameters.

Default:

from astropy.convolution import Gaussian1DKernel
kernel = Gaussian1DKernel(stddev=1)
Normalize kernel [boolean]

Whether to normalize the kernel to have a sum of one.

Default: False

Interpolate no data pixel [boolean]

Whether to interpolate no data pixel. Will result in renormalization of the kernel at each position ignoring pixels with no data values.

Default: True

Outputs

Output raster layer [rasterDestination]

Raster file destination.
