Befor/After Images: Recommended folder structure and default values
In our project
SwissGlaciers.org we use the folder structures described below in combination with the default values described further down.
Folder structure:
Caption:
- A folder (= object folder) is created for each object for which before and after comparisons are to be created.
In the example, a folder is created per glacier: AllalinGlacier_2, AlphubelGlacier_65, etc.
- A subfolder is created in the object folder for each before / after photo comparison.
For example: Compare01, Compare02
In these folders, the image files are stored, from which a before / after photo comparison is to be created. The oldest photo is stored with a height of 2500 pixels, all others with a height of 3000 pixels in the format TIFF / LZW without alpha channels.The project file of the comparison is also stored in this folder.
- In each folder of a before / after photo comparison, a subfolder ResultOrg is created.This folder stores the processed (i.e., scaled and rotated) photos of the before / after comparison.
