The available image formats are described here.


Select the salient point detector to use. Our process is available with Haar or Daubechies4 wavelets. You can compare them with the Harris corner detector. Other detectors are available here.

Set the number of points you want to obtain :
If you don't want points on the border you can specify the size of the border without points (in number of pixels) :

Warning: The process and file format conversions performed by this system can be rather time consuming... It might take a couple minutes for the result to be returned.
