ENVI is an advanced, full-featured remote sensing image processing
application. It combines a robust suite of image processing functions
with state-of-the-art radar and spectral analysis routines, giving you
a powerful tool that can be used from desktop PCs, Macintoshes, or Unix
workstations.

ENVI's open file architecture allows you to read and analyze virtually any
image type and share the data with others. Its intuitive graphical user
interface gets new users get up and running fast, and experienced users
can easily customize the interface to suit specialized analysis
requirements.

Custom image processing routines can be rapidly created and run in ENVI
using IDL, Research Systems' comprehensive data analysis and visualization
toolkit. With ENVI, you get the unique combination of advanced image
processing, an intuitive graphical interface, and flexible extensibility.


Highlights of Unique ENVI Features:

Efficient, array-based image math - Harness IDL's powerful tools for 
numerical analysis of imagery including FFTs, algebraic & trigonometric 
functions, and spline interpolation.

Innovative visualization tools - take advantage of state-of-the-art methods 
for representing and displaying your imagery, including XYZ profiles, 3D 
perspective views, image draping surface plots, and interactive scattergrams.

Linked windows and dynamic overlays - Simultaneously display registered 
images from different data sets to quickly compare and evaluate your results.

Advanced analysis of spectral data - Built-in tools for the efficient 
handling of "hyperspectral" imagery can be integrated with spectral libraries 
and processing techniques like interactive scatter plots, stacked profiles, 
spectral-curve math, and linear spectral unmixing.

Advanced radar tools - Synthesize images from synthetic aperture radar data.  
Extract polarization signatures and process the images using a wide suite of 
radar-specific tools.

Versatile annotation - using ENVI's advanced annotation functions, you can 
easily create publication-quality maps and plots for presentation to your 
colleagues.  Annotation features include: multiple fonts, line styles and 
thickness, fill patterns, symbol tables, and interactive positioning and 
resizing.

User extensibility - now you have the power to write your own processing 
algorithms using the powerful IDL language.  Customized functions can be 
added to ENVI's comprehensive menus for convenient point-and-click access.
