Polar (Circular) projection to Equirectangular projection

pompandclout's picture

Hey all, new here, been lurking a bit.

Trying to solve a simple need in QC:

I want to take a circular panorama image, and do what's effectively a "polar coordinates" filter to it in Photoshop terms. This will effectively flatten it. Ref images attached. Any easy way to do this? thx!

Polar To Cartesian and Cartesian To Polar CI Filter are what you need. Can't remember if they are in QC by default though.

If not I can post them here when I'll be on a computer.

Please post - and do you have a CI filter for going back the other way as well?
