Despeckle Method

Summary

Removes speckles from an image. Typically, this operation is used to clean up scanned images (such as FAX images). This operation is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Syntax

C++

[FaultContractAttribute(DetailType=Leadtools.Services.Raster.FaultContracts.RasterFault,  
   Action="",  
   Name="",  
   Namespace="",  
   ProtectionLevel=ProtectionLevel.None,  
   HasProtectionLevel=false)] 
[OperationContractAttribute("Despeckle")] 
Leadtools.Services.Imageprocessing.Datacontracts.CommandResponse Despeckle(  
   Leadtools.Services.Imageprocessing.Datacontracts.DespeckleRequest request 
)

<OperationContractAttribute("Despeckle")> 
Function Despeckle( _ 
   ByVal request As Leadtools.Services.Imageprocessing.Datacontracts.DespeckleRequest _ 
) As Leadtools.Services.Imageprocessing.Datacontracts.CommandResponse

[FaultContractAttribute(DetailType=Leadtools.Services.Raster.FaultContracts.RasterFault,  
   Action="",  
   Name="",  
   Namespace="",  
   ProtectionLevel=ProtectionLevel.None,  
   HasProtectionLevel=false)] 
[OperationContractAttribute("Despeckle")] 
Leadtools.Services.Imageprocessing.Datacontracts.CommandResponse^ Despeckle(  
   Leadtools.Services.Imageprocessing.Datacontracts.DespeckleRequest^ request 
)

Parameters

request
A System.Runtime.Serialization.DataContractAttribute containing the data that will be used in this Despeckle operation.

Return Value

A System.Runtime.Serialization.DataContractAttribute containing the modified image resulting from the Despeckle operation.

Remarks

This operation removes 1-pixel speckles, and shrinks some larger speckles. Therefore, in some cases, larger speckles can be completely removed by running it more than once.
This operation supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.
This operation does not support 32-bit grayscale images.
