Problem reading tiff image files?
Hi,
I'm currently working on some code that will need to read color tiff image files. While I have no problems working with gray scale images I have not had any luck getting color to work. At the moment all I am simply trying to do is read a color tiff image (which filename is "input.tif") and output the values of individual samples (pixel elements RGB) to the screen. (I'm intentionally not printing all image pixels to the screen at the moment.) However, what my code currently does is output partially correct results. It seems to display the first few (~10) samples fine to the screen, but then starts skipping samples. Do you guys have any ideas what may be causing that? What may be wrong with my code (listed below)?
Any suggestions/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. :)
This is my code (hopefully it doesn't lose all formatting):
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream.h>
#include <tiffio.h>
void print_error (char *err_message);
int main()
{
double red_mean; // mean red value of fed image
uint32 r; // row index
uint32 c; // column index
uint32 rows; // number of rows in image
uint32 columns; // number of columns in image
uint16 BitsPerSample; // normally 8 for grayscale image
uint16 SamplesPerPixel; // normally 1 for grayscale image
uint16 PhotoMetric; // normally 1 for grayscale image
unsigned char *in_image; // pointer for input image array
unsigned char *out_image; // pointer for output image array
TIFF *in_filep; // handle for input image file
TIFF *out_filep; // handle for output image file
int check_io; // status of I/O operation
// Open input image file
in_filep = TIFFOpen("input.tif", "r");
if (in_filep == NULL)
print_error ("Could not open input file!");
// Open output image file
out_filep = TIFFOpen ("output.tif", "w");
if (out_filep == NULL)
print_error ("Could not open output file!");
// Determine the size of the input image
TIFFGetField(in_filep, TIFFTAG_IMAGELENGTH, &rows);
TIFFGetField(in_filep, TIFFTAG_IMAGEWIDTH, &columns);

TIFFGetField(in_filep, TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC, &PhotoMetric);
//TIFFGetField(in_filep, TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC, &PlanarConfig);
// The following statements are helpful in debugging
printf ("rows = %ld\n", rows);
printf ("columns = %ld\n", columns);
printf ("BitsPerSample = %d\n", BitsPerSample);
printf ("SamplesPerPixel = %d\n", SamplesPerPixel);
printf ("PhotoMetric = %d\n", PhotoMetric);
// Specify TIFF header fields for output image
TIFFSetField(out_filep, TIFFTAG_IMAGELENGTH, rows);
TIFFSetField(out_filep, TIFFTAG_IMAGEWIDTH, columns);
TIFFSetField(out_filep, TIFFTAG_BITSPERSAMPLE, BitsPerSample);
TIFFSetField(out_filep, TIFFTAG_SAMPLESPERPIXEL, SamplesPerPixel);
TIFFSetField(out_filep, TIFFTAG_PLANARCONFIG, 1);
TIFFSetField(out_filep, TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC, PhotoMetric);
// Allocate memory to hold image arrays
in_image = (unsigned char *) _TIFFmalloc(rows*columns);
if (in_image == NULL)
print_error ("Could not allocate memory!");
out_image = (unsigned char *) _TIFFmalloc(rows*columns);
if (out_image == NULL)
print_error ("Could not allocate memory!");
// Read image pixel values from file, row by row
for (r = 0; r < rows; r++)
{
check_io = TIFFReadScanline(in_filep, &in_image[r*columns], r, 1);
if (check_io != 1)
print_error ("Could not read image from file!");
}
//************************************************************************************

red_mean = 0;
for (r = 0; r < 3; r++)
for (c = 0; c < 24; c++)
//for (c = 0; c <= (columns*3); (c=c+3))
{
cout << "r = " << r << " c= " << c << " Intensity = " << (int) in_image[r*columns+c] << endl;
}

}
// Deallocate the image memory, close file streams, and exit
_TIFFfree(in_image);

TIFFClose(in_filep);
TIFFClose(out_filep);
exit (0);
}
