LinearMapping#

class lsst.afw.display.LinearMapping(minimum=None, maximum=None, image=None)#

A linear map of red, blue, green intensities into uint8 values

Parameters#

minimumfloat or sequence of float: Intensity that should be mapped to black. If an array, has three elements for R, G, B.
maximumfloat: Intensity that should be mapped to white
image: Image to estimate minimum/maximum if not explicitly set

Methods Summary

Return an array which, when multiplied by an image, returns that image mapped to the range of a uint8, [0, 255] (but not converted to uint8)

Methods Documentation

mapIntensityToUint8(intensity)#

Return an array which, when multiplied by an image, returns that image mapped to the range of a uint8, [0, 255] (but not converted to uint8)

The intensity is assumed to have had minimum subtracted (as that can be done per-band)
