Osml-imagery-toolkit

This release fixes errors with using digital elevation models (DEMs) with the sensor models provided by this package. It is recommended that all applications update to this latest version since the errors fixed can impact the accuracy of geolocation (image_to_world) results.

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/aws-solutions-library-samples/osml-imagery-toolkit/compare/v1.4.1...v1.4.2

This release fixes errors in the dynamic range adjustment (DRA) calculations for imagery with >8 bits per pixel and handles incompatibilities with GDAL 3.9. This version is now compatible with GDAL versions 3.7 through 3.9 which also let us support all currently maintained versions of Python (3.9 through 3.13).

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/aws-solutions-library-samples/osml-imagery-toolkit/compare/v1.4.0...v1.4.1

This release contains new capabilities that give the GDALTileFactory the ability to create orthophoto tiles on the fly from overhead imagery. These functions can be combined with the WebMercatorQuad tile matrix set to provide support for integrating imagery into a variety of map visualization applications. The processing makes use of SensorModels constructed from the georeferencing metadata to compute the mapping between the raw imagery pixels and the requested map tile. The map tiles are intended for human consumption so dynamic range adjustments other pixel preprocessing are applied to convert the raw imagery pixels into a RGB format for easy display. Preliminary performance tests have not shown issues so long as the imagery has an existing set of pre-generated overviews and auxiliary files with pixel statistics.

Limitations:
* **Only PNGs:** This implementation only provides support for PNG formatted output images. Future releases will support other formats as a request parameter.
* **Simple Elevation:** This code does not currently use an external digital elevation model to provide elevation information for points chosen inside a tile.

New Dependency:
* [OpenCV](https://opencv.org/) has been added to provide the core image warping required to produce orthophotos.

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/aws-solutions-library-samples/osml-imagery-toolkit/compare/v1.3.2...v1.4.0

This release is focused on updates to map tile generation. Changes include an alpha mask to map tiles to address cases where the tile bounds are outside the image bounds. Previously this was filled with black pixels that obstructed other map layers. The map tile endpoint now respects the range_adjustment setting of a viewpoint and applies the normalization with respect to the entire image instead of the local tile being requested.

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/aws-solutions-library-samples/osml-imagery-toolkit/compare/v1.4.0rc3...v1.4.0rc4

This release fixes a programming error that caused the GDALTileFactory to write incorrect XML metadata with SICD tiles. The error may have had other unnoticed impacts on the metadata associated with any NITF tiles generated. It is the same change released in v1.3.2 added to this preview baseline for consumption by early adopters.

OversightML Imagery Toolkit v1.4.0rc2.`
This release fixes errors in the construction of sensor models from SICD 1.3.0 imagery. The sensor models themselves are unchanged but there was a problem in the logic that automatically parses/compares the values of key XML elements.
