About

Anemo - Digital Image Processing Software for Segmentation of Climatological Graphic Records

Anemo is a open source software for digital image processing of climatological records registred by mechanical meteorological instruments(like anemometers and barometer). Curently it's just a prototype that realize the segmentation of anemograms(wind speed only).

Input: Wind speed graphic record(PNG/JPEG/TIFF file).

Output: Segmented graphic with the inflection points detected(PNG/JPEG/TIFF file).

Example:

Input

K-Means

Removal of neighbor

Average filter

Chain Code Sequence

Upper and lower profiles with average 3

Inflection points

The set of techiques used are Cluster Analysis by K-Means algorithm, Smoothing Algorithm, Freeman Encoding(Chain code), Chain Code Smoothing, Chain Code Profile Analysis and Concavity Analysis.
