A Picturebox Control to Display Both Remote Sensing and Regular Digital Images - CodeProject

Introduction to Article
Extracting useful land use features, such as buildings, roads, and even vehicles, from remote sensing imagery has long been a focus in the field of digital image analysis. Now many software and web services (e.g., Google Earth, Google Map, ArcMap and Bing Maps) have successfully applied information from remote sensing images to assist the public to solve a wide variety of problems like navigation, urban planning and environment engineering. However, compared with regular digital images, the remote sensing images usually have more bands and in various data types (e.g., byte, integer, float, and double). Due to the specialties of remote sensing images, they are not well supported by regular image viewers. For example, the built-in Picturebox control in Visual Studio is not able to display remote sensing images.
