Dear all,<br>
<br>CNES is happy to announce the release of OTB <span class=3D"nfakPe">2.8=
</span>, code name &quot;=B9=A7=CF=B2=B7=A2=B2=C6&quot; (Gong Xi Fa Cai).<b=
r>
<br>
The main additions to this version are both on the library and the<br>
applications.<br>
<br>
End users will be happy to find 3 very useful new applications:<br>
1. Object Counting &lt;<a href=3D"http://blog.orfeo-toolbox.org/uncategoriz=
ed/counting-objects" target=3D"_blank">http://blog.orfeo-toolbox.org/uncate=
gorized/counting-objects</a>&gt;<br>
2. Fine Registration &lt;<a href=3D"http://blog.orfeo-toolbox.org/uncategor=
ized/fine-registration" target=3D"_blank">http://blog.orfeo-toolbox.org/unc=
ategorized/fine-registration</a>&gt;<br>
3. Road Extraction &lt;<a href=3D"http://blog.orfeo-toolbox.org/preview/roa=
d-extraction-revamped" target=3D"_blank">http://blog.orfeo-toolbox.org/prev=
iew/road-extraction-revamped</a>&gt;<br>
<br>
A very user-friendly installer for the whole set of applications is provide=
d for Windows users.<br>
<br>
Library users will be interested about:<br>
1. A new implementation (faster, more robust) of the SIFT algorithm<br>
2. The Speed-Up Robust Features (SURF) kindly contributed by<br>
Communications &amp; Syst=A8=A8mes<br>
3. The Mean Shift filtering and clustering algorithm<br>
4. The out-of-the-box support for KML and OpenStreetMaps<br>
5. The support for lidar data using libLAS &lt;<a href=3D"http://liblas.org=
/" target=3D"_blank">http://liblas.org/</a>&gt;<br>
<br>
As usual, you can go to &lt;<a href=3D"http://www.orfeo-toolbox.org/" targe=
t=3D"_blank">http://www.orfeo-toolbox.org/</a>&gt; and follow the<br><div i=
d=3D":aq" class=3D"ArwC7c ckChnd">
download link or get directly to Sourceforge<br>
&lt;<a href=3D"http://sourceforge.net/projects/orfeo-toolbox/" target=3D"_b=
lank">http://sourceforge.net/projects/orfeo-toolbox/</a>&gt; and get the pa=
ckages<br>
there. Full source code, Software Guide and Windows binaries are<br>
available.<br>
<br>
OTB is the only open source library which makes available a full set of<br>
building blocks for implementing remote sensing image processing going<br>
from low level to advanced map applications. All this thanks to, among othe=
rs, <br>ITK, GDAL and OSSIM.<br>
