Monteverdi improvements

This story gathers improvements listed in the old wiki :

  • Display radar images

  • Clarify the numbering of bands. Zero or one based? Currently the band selector drop down menu shows entries like: "1: Band 0". (note: I think it should be all 1-based to follow QGIS and GDAL convention: http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/219886/is-it-convention-to-index-a-raster-band-from-1?atw=1)

  • Read Band names and band wavelength

  • Allow to select the interpolation modes (nearest, bicubic, etc.). Most wanted from users is OpenGL bi-cubic texture filtering (currently, only bi-linear) when zooming more than 1:1

  • Add a (rectangular) Region Of Interest selection tool

  • Display preview of OTB-applications result(s)

  • Add an angle/distance/surface measure tool

  • Support Ice viewport rotation feature

  • Full screen mode

  • Layer stack right click menu:

    • Add a button remove all layers but not the selected
  • Support the aux.file of GDAL to store Histogram and Min/Max value to avoid recompute it each time or store GCP to allow open the data into QGIS correctly

  • Support image with palette

  • Add a widget with statistic of the image (Mean, Variance, Sum, Nb of ValidPixel, ...)

  • Add a widget with general information about the selected image (size, nb bands, origin, proj...)

  • Histogram enhancements:

    • Add the capability to compute the histogram at full resolution
    • Optionally display the computed RGB histogram
    • Option to compute color dynamics based on current view, not entire image, and auto update on zoom and pan
    • Ice should do the histogram computation instead of Monteverdi (GDAL can also do it)
    • Export the exact histogram to a file
  • Add warning message in Monteverdi when trying to open an image with a large number of images (> 50 bands for instance)
