ImageFileScan

applies the function f to the list of channel values for each pixel of the image stored in inputfile.

Details and Options

ImageFileScan can be used to read and process successive pixel data from a very large image file whose size could exceed available memory.
The channel values supplied to f are normally in the range 0 to 1, regardless of the underlying type used in the Image object.
ImageFileScan[f,…] discards the results of applying f to the pixels. Unlike ImageFileApply, ImageFileScan does not create a new file and returns Null.
ImageFileScan is useful in carrying out an operation on individual pixels where the operation has a "side effect", such as making an assignment.
ImageFileScan works with TIFF, JPEG, and PNG files.
ImageFileScan works on images with any number of channels.
The image file inputfile can be given as a string or a File object.
ImageFileScan traverses the image in a row-wise order from left to right.
You can use Throw to exit from ImageFileScan. »
The following options can be given:
Interleaving True whether to supply f lists of channel values

Method Automatic method to use
The following suboptions can be given to Method:

	"ImageList"	All	frames to process from a file with multiple images
	"MaxBlockSize"	8000000	maximal size of image blocks in pixels loaded into the memory

The value of the option "MaxBlockSize" may be exceeded if it is smaller than the smallest block supported for the input file.
