Loop over numpy array to save them as tif files












0















I am trying to save a numpy array (train_images) with shape (625, 256, 256, 4) as tif images in a folder using a for loop. That is, 625 RGBN images of 256 x 256 pixels. Currently my code looks as follows:



path = str(os.getcwd) + "/data/train_images"

for i in train_images:
num = 0
i.save(num + '.tif')
num +=1


It is however not possible to save a numpy array as a tif file like this. In the end I would like to have 625 saved (RGBN) tif images in the folder named 0.tif, 1.tif etc.

  • I'm sorry, train_images is the numpy array of shape (625, 256, 256, 4).

    Maybe you want to look into the tifffile module pypi.org/project/tifffile because numpy.save does "Save an array to a binary file in NumPy .npy format". Keep in mind that a TIFF file contains a header.

Try imsave in scipy.misc, as follows:



path = str(os.getcwd) + "/data/train_images/"

num = 0
for img in train_images:
import scipy.misc
scipy.misc.imsave(path + str(num) + '.tif', img)
num +=1


To read an image from a file, you would need to use the following:



import imageio
im = imageio.imread('0.tif')


Hope it helps.

  • There is one problem though, if I read the image in again the shape has changed. When we loop over the train images then "train_image" has shape (625,256,256,4), and when i read the saved images they have shape (25, 256, 256, 4). Where does this first 25 come from?
