Hi,
As a beginner envi programmer,
I'm trying to perform flood plane modelling from lidar data by
spcifying a range of elevations and a seed value, then do a fill to
create shapefiles of areas that may be inundated by a flood scenario.
I would like to do this for a very large data-set, preferably in batch
mode.
I have 2 queries one general the other specific.
1. General:
Any ideas as to the best approach to doing this? Should I try to look
for existing ENVI functions for the needed functionality or write my
own IDL routines?
2. Specific (maybe, i'll also post it as a separate msg):
So far it looks like REGION_GROW may be useful by creating a vector of
vertices representing a ROI. the next step would be to covert the ROI
to shapefile. Any functions in IDL/ENVI that cleanly allow this
conversion?
any help is greatly appreciated.
