Hello everyone (again),
For those who are aware, I'm the guy that’s trying to take flower temperatures with a thermal expert Q1 for a work-related project
. Since I have little to no knowledge about thermal imaging just like everybody with whom I work with, I have but no choice to take more of your time for my troubles. So here it is
https://imgur.com/a/O5dvzvv I have here two near identical pictures of a bunch of flowers. They are both taken at the same time (like with 10 seconds interval), but what would differ would probably be my exact position and the resolution of the thermal camera relative to the flowers. I think this is where my problem lies.
I’m using the thermal expert image processing software since it’s the only one I know how to work. I've marked in polygons and a dot different structures that are easily identifiable on the pictures. These markers aren’t exactly the same in both pictures, but they are roughly equivalent and what matters to me is the average (AVG) and not the min nor the max.
What saddens me is that both picture do not show equivalent temperature readings, and by what I consider to be a large amount. I tried to see if I could apply a corrector to one of the pictures, but the ratio varies for every structure and taking a mean of all the data doesn't fully correct it.
This is a bother, because I can’t tell which one of the two is the picture that depicts reality (as close as it can be, of course).
Has anybody ever encountered this problem and what do you think would be the proper way for me to deal with this?
Thank you!
