Hi, I have seen several references to a working technique to use a footprint.shp file with the imagemosaic plugin to despeckle compressed images. I have not yet however seen any reference to how exactly to do it. I would appreciate someone pointing me to the appropriate documentation or explicitly describing the procedure. I’ve found no documentation of a procedure anywhere. I’ve looked at some code, hoping to derive a procedure, but nothing we’ve tried so far works.
The scenario is that we have aerials, in MrSID format that we are using in the imagemosaic plugin in geoserver 2.3.2. We do not want to process the imagery or convert to another format. It seems that a shape file constraining the area of interest (masking nodata and near nodata) may be a good solution. But, how can it be done?
Thank you,
Shamus
Hi Shamus,
Does this cover it?

There’s also an old thread:

The footprint management via shapefiles has been lost along the way, it was
present in an old
branch but not forward ported.
Nowadays the mosaic code has the machinery to deal with footprints when
used programmatically
with a custom programmed index, but cannot read footprints from shapefiles
and cannot be configured to do so
With some work the functionality could be brought back, and this time,
committed to trunk first, so that
it stays there for the foreseeable future (the old changes cannot just be
ported, the mosaic code base
has changed a lot since back then).

Thank you Jonathan. I had seen those references, but it seems that the functionality is no longer available in more recent versions.

Thank you for the clarification Andrea. It seems the capability would be useful. Do you have a reference where I could learn more about the custom programmed index? I would like to consider that approach before deciding what to do next. We have a lot of imagery and will need to decide an approach to despeckle them without processing them. So far, I only see two straightforward approaches, bringing back the footprint functionality, or if possible attempting some change so that a nodata value range can be used in the imagemosaic plugin so a list of values could be used.
Thanks again,
Shamus

The image mosaic catalog API is not considered to be public, so we don't
have examples, the case I was citing is
a vertical that's not released to the public.
However... I guess you can still have a look at the image mosaic plugin
sources and see if you can figure out how to use it
by yourself:
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/tree/master/modules/plugin/imagemosaic
Or you can look into the commercial support options and have someone
re-build the footprint support into the mosaic module
(this time, on trunk, so that it does not get lost)
Cheers
