infrared (720 nm low-pass) view of Bebenhausen
The greyscale infrared pictures can be used to create colourful false-colour infrared pictures. The infrared picture (ir) is swapped into the red channel (r), whereas the original red and green (g) channels are swapped into the green and blue (b) channels, respectively (the original blue channel is not used):
This corresponds to the analog Kodak EIR false-colour infrared film. Vegetation appears magenta, whereas areas which both reflect red and (near) infrared appear yellow.
Detail from the picture above:
As a result of colour channel swapping (g > b), the roof of the Green Tower appears blue.
In the forest, conifers (magenta) can be discriminated from broad-leafed trees (orange), which either are bare or have red-brownish foliage.
