NAME
pamsharpness - measure the sharpness of a PNM/PAM image
SYNOPSIS
pamsharpness [imagefile]
DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1)
pamsharpness reads a Netpbm image (PNM or PAM) and prints a number that
tells how sharp it is.
Sharpness is a measure of how suddenly (in space) colors change in the
image. pamsharpness computes the sharpness of the image as the average
difference in intensity between each pixel and its 8 surrounding pix-
els, in each of the color components (R, G, B).
pamsharpness does not include the edges of the image, where there are
not 8 pixels surrounding a pixel, in its computation.
pamsharpness assumes that the image is a PNM or PNM equivalent PAM. If
it isn't, the results are not necessarily meaningful.

Henderson derived it from the program pnmsharp by B.W. van Schooten and
distributed as part of the Photopnmtools package.
