Using a mask within a script
Posted: 05 Dec 2024, 18:29
Hi
I have a bunch of solar images that I would like to process. I created an inverted mask for the solar surface. With this mask, I can apply a histogram stretch to the image in order to bring out the solar prominence.
I have many images to process and I would like to do all of this in a script.
I can figure out how to open/save an image in the script, but I cannot figure out how to open the mask for the purpose of applying the histogram stretch.
Has anyone done this? Can it be done? if so, how?
Thank you,
