The DIRSIG-4.0.7 build is now available off the myDirsig website. Besides a bunch of smaller bug fixes, the key improvements are to the LIDAR and Polarization models. This is also the first release in which Voxelized Grids can be reliably used ( demonstration ). This release also marks the first time that the DIRS Laboratory has put out an x86-64 based Linux build. Assembled on Fedora Core 5, it takes advantage of the additional registers and instructions added to the 64-bit x86 CPUs. Unfortunately, many of the libraries are dynamically linked, making it difficult to use portably across different Linux platforms. Future releases will feature more static linkage. Note that this version has undergone extensive testing; it is used across our internal compute cluster.
A blog about the Digital Imaging and Remote Sensing Image Generation (DIRSIG) model featuring posts contributed by the developers. This is not a user manual and it is not a training class. But, it is a place to see what the developers are doing and a little about how we do it. So think of this as a place to learn cool tips, tricks, etc.
