USAGE EXAMPLES

   Quick overview of a dataset file:

   rawlog-edit --info -i in.rawlog

   Cut the entries [1000,2000] into another rawlog file:

   rawlog-edit --cut --from-index 1000 --to-index 2000 \
                -i in.rawlog -o out.rawlog

   Cut the entries from the beginning up to timestamp 1281619819:

   rawlog-edit --cut --to-time 1281619819 \
                -i in.rawlog -o out.rawlog

   Generate a Google Earth KML file with the GPS data in a dataset:

   rawlog-edit --export-gps-kml -i in.rawlog

   Remove all observations named "REAR_LASER":

   rawlog-edit --remove-label REAR_LASER -i in.rawlog -o out.rawlog

   Remove all observations not named "REAR_LASER":

   rawlog-edit --keep-label REAR_LASER -i in.rawlog -o out.rawlog

   Convert all images to external storage mode:

   rawlog-edit --externalize -i in.rawlog -o out.rawlog

   rawlog-edit --externalize --image-format jpg -i in.rawlog \
                -o out.rawlog

DESCRIPTION

   rawlog-edit is a command-line application to inspect and manipulate
   robotic dataset files in the "rawlog" standardized format.

   These are the supported arguments and operations:

      --rename-externals
        Op: Renames all the external storage file names within the rawlog (it
        doesn't change the external files, which may even not exist).

      --stereo-rectify <SENSOR_LABEL,0.5>
        Op: creates a new set of external images for all
        CObservationStereoImages with the given SENSOR_LABEL, using the camera
        parameters stored in the observations (which must be a valid
        calibration) and with the given alpha value. Alpha can be -1 for auto,
        or otherwise be in the range [0,1] (see OpenCV's docs for
        cvStereoRectify).

        Requires: -o (or --output)

        Optional: --image-format to set image format (default=jpg),

        --image-size to resize output images (example: --image-size 640x480)

      --camera-params <SENSOR_LABEL,file.ini>
        Op: change the camera parameters of all CObservationImage's with the
        given SENSOR_LABEL, with new params loaded from the given file,
        section '[CAMERA_PARAMS]' for monocular cameras, or
        '[CAMERA_PARAMS_LEFT]' and '[CAMERA_PARAMS_RIGHT]' for
        stereo.

        Requires: -o (or --output)

      --sensors-pose <file.ini>
        Op: batch change the poses of sensors from a rawlog-grabber-like
        configuration file that specifies the pose of sensors by their
        sensorLabel names.

        Requires: -o (or --output)

      --generate-pcd
        Op: Generate a PointCloud Library (PCL) PCD file with the point cloud
        for each sensor observation that can be converted into this
        representation: laser scans, 3D camera images, etc.

        Optional: --out-dir to change the output directory (default: "./")

      --generate-3d-pointclouds
        Op: (re)generate the 3D pointclouds within CObservation3DRangeScan
        objects that have range data.

        Requires: -o (or --output)

      --cut
        Op: Cut a part of the input rawlog.

        Requires: -o (or --output)

        Requires: At least one of --from-index, --from-time, --to-index,
        --to-time. Use only one of the --from-* and --to-* at once.

        If only a --from-* is given, the rawlog will be saved up to its end.
        If only a --to-* is given, the rawlog will be saved from its
        beginning.

      --export-2d-scans-txt
        Op: Export 2D scans to TXT files.

        Generates two .txt files for each different sensor label of 2D scan
        observations, one with the timestamps and the other with range
        data.

        The generated .txt files will be saved in the same path than the input
        rawlog, with the same filename + each sensorLabel.

      --export-imu-txt
        Op: Export IMU readings to TXT files.

        Generates one .txt file for each different sensor label of an IMU
        observation in the dataset. The generated .txt files will be saved in
        the same path than the input rawlog, with the same filename + each
        sensorLabel.

      --export-gps-txt
        Op: Export GPS readings to TXT files.

        Generates one .txt file for each different sensor label of GPS
        observations in the dataset. The generated .txt files will be saved in
        the same path than the input rawlog, with the same filename + each
        sensorLabel.

      --export-gps-kml
        Op: Export GPS paths to Google Earth KML files.

        Generates one .kml file with different sections for each different
        sensor label of GPS observations in the dataset. The generated .kml
        files will be saved in the same path than the input rawlog, with the
        same filename + each sensorLabel.

      --keep-label <label[,label...]>
        Op: Remove all observations not matching the given sensor
        label(s).Several labels can be provided separated by commas.

        Requires: -o (or --output)

      --remove-label <label[,label...]>
        Op: Remove all observation matching the given sensor label(s).Several
        labels can be provided separated by commas.

        Requires: -o (or --output)

      --list-range-bearing
        Op: dump a list of all landmark observations of type
        range-bearing.

        Optionally the output text file can be changed with
        --text-file-output.

      --remap-timestamps <a;b>
        Op: Change all timestamps t replacing it with the linear map
        'a*t+b'.The parameters 'a' and 'b' must be given separated with a
        semicolon.

        Requires: -o (or --output)

      --list-timestamps
        Op: generates a list with all the observations' timestamp, sensor
        label and C++ class name.

        Optionally the output text file can be changed with
        --text-file-output.

      --list-images
        Op: dump a list of all external image files in the dataset.

        Optionally the output text file can be changed with
        --text-file-output.

      --info
        Op: parse input file and dump information and statistics.

      --externalize
        Op: convert to external storage.
