Outstanding Issues

There is no outstanding issue regarding OTB code provenance. OTB integrates in one module a dependency to the 6S library (developed by NASA, Maryland University and LOA lab). The software is distribute freely (including the source code) but without explicit license. We've got the agreement from the software authors and we're in the process of formalize this agreement (there is no issue) In the meantime OTB module which use 6S has been deactivated from the Debian package.

Included Libraries

List of third party libraries source code integrated in OTB source tree:

  • 6S
  • SiftFast
  • Boost (type_traits)
  • OssimPLugins

Other OTB dependencies are not included in the source tree.

Free Libraries

  • 6S
  • SiftFast
  • Boost type_traits
  • OssimPLugins

Non-Free Libraries

OTB does not include any non-free libraries.

Code Review

An extensive code review is in progress in the frame of the licence modification for OTB (from CeCILL to Apache). I can provide the link to Landon to follow the progress (work in progress).

Moreover CNES commissioned Black Duck to perform a code review of the library in 2011. The report points only 6S which is publicly available but without license (its authors gave a special permission to Orfeo Toolbox team ton include it). I don't think that I can make the report public.
