OpenCV resize fails on large image with “error: (-215) ssize.area() > 0 in function cv::resize”

Question

I\'m using OpenCV 3.0.0 and Python 3.4.3 to process a very large RGB image (107162,79553,3). While I\'m trying to resize it using the following code:

import         


        

Answer 1

Also pay attention to the object type of your numpy array, converting it using .astype('uint8') resolved the issue for me.
