CET perceptually Uniform Color Maps

Mon, 05/01/2017 - 01:59 pm

Since IgorPro 7.01 more Color Table options ship with Igor, including some that are perceptually uniform.

I recently found these excellent colour maps from Peter Kovesi:
http://peterkovesi.com/projects/colourmaps/
They are released under CC-BY and around 50 tables are available as CSV. I wrote something quick to bring them into Igor and have attached them here in case anyone else wants to use them. There is a PDF showing the colour tables as displayed in Igor, plus a zip file containing ibw files of the colortables. I had to truncate the names slightly to make them Igor friendly, but you should be able to work them out from the PDF.

The paper that describes their design is here:
