1. Downloading a batch

When downloading a Semifield batch, It copies over to the local user from the NFS Lockers.

...

1.1 Checking if the batch was completely copied

It is important to check Check if the copied batch was brought to the local user entirely. We must know the # of images in the original batch. Use this command:

Code Block
ls /mnt/research-projects/s/screberg/longterm_images2/semifield-upload/<batch>/*.ARW | wc -l

...

Check the # of images in the local directory after download has completed:

Code Block
ls /home/psa_images/temp_data/semifield-upload/<batch>/*.ARW | wc -l

(Moving files from longterm storage to the local working directory, before you run the the pipeline).

*The output should be equal to the above command; should be 0 after running the pipelineUse this command:

Code Block
ls /home/psa_images/temp_data/semifield-upload/<batch>/*.ARW | wc -l

After running the pipeline, check if all the ARW files have converted to JPGs and have moved to the longterm “developed” storage. Use this command:

Code Block
ls /mnt/research-projects/s/screberg/longterm_images2/semifield-developed-images/<batch>/images/*.jpg | wc -l

Example Here is an example of checking if batches were copied

...

RawTherapee will launch in an a separate window and open opens to the most recent profile that has been recently worked on profile. Select the appropriate batch and allow it to load. Scroll through and make a mental note if some images are out of the ordinary (i.e. too bright, too dark, out of focus, Amiga in the frame, etc.).

...

When creating a color profile

...

Our goal when creating a color profile , the goal is to have every image look similarly to the rest of the batch. When RawTherapee launches, it will bring us to the last batch we worked on by default. Be sure to navigate to the intended batch. Note when there is more than one folder within the batch. We must adjust every image in each folder before sending the batch into the pipeline.

It is good practice to scan through all images to get an idea of what they are looking like, if there are any outliers, or anything to make note of.

...

2.1 Look for a Color Checker

We want to use Using an image with a color checker, if one is available within the batch. Choose the , choose the most average looking picture (lighting and color-wise). It is preferred to select an average image with both a color checker and biomass. If there is no biomass present, choose an average image with a color checker.

...

*In Semifield applications, a smaller Color Checker lanyard is typically used. The Field Color Checker might be used instead, but the smaller one is preferred for this application. Either is acceptable.

2 Bring in a Recent profile & Color Picker

...

To bring in a recent profile, find the folder icon towards the top right of the screen, located to the left of the save button. This will open a window containing a list of saved profiles within the local user. Choose the most recent date in relation to the image being worked on.

...

Only one square on the Color Checker is used for in this application. Referring to the image above, the gray residing two squares above the black is the color to use. Use this gray for every profile. Choose the hand icon to return to normal cursor mode.

3 Adjust exposure & saturation

...

Now, navigate into the Exposure tab. This is the only tab used in preprocessing, aside from the tab to access the Color Picker. There are only a few helpful settings to toggle here.
