The ORFEO Toolbox is a project conducted by CNES and developed in cooperation with CS
(Communication & Systèmes), http://www.c-s.fr.
This Software Guide is based on the ITK Software Guide: the build process for the documentation, many
examples and even the LATEX sources were taken from ITK. We are very grateful to the ITK
developers and contributors and especially to Luis Ibáñez.
The OTB specifics were implemented and documented by the OTB Development Team with some help from several contributors. Without these people1 , OTB will not be where it is today:
