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

I had the same error. Resizing the images resolved the issue. However, I used online tools to resize the images because using pillow to resize them did not solve my problem.
