Performing time series analysis with images taken with Clear filter?

Hi all!

I'm trying to perform a time series analysis of a set of images, taken with a Clear filter. When I analyze one single image, I can choose which band to use for measurement (I choose V) and which it should be reported as (I choose C). However, there are no such choices in the time series analysis. And when I try to run the analysis, I get a quick empty result.....

So: how can I perform a time series in VPhot with these images with Clear filter?

Hello Magnus, sorry about…

Hello Magnus, sorry about the late response...

Once you import the files into VPhot, Select them all, select "Rename", choose "Filters" , Choose "V", Choose "Apply",then go back to images.. You should be able to use Time Series now on these "fake" V images.

Clear Skies,

Peter
