Finding the Size Resolution of Image in Python (original) (raw)

Last Updated : 3 Jan, 2023

Let us see how to find the resolution of an image in Python. We will be solving this problem with two different libraries which are present in Python:

In our examples we will be using the following image:

The resolution of the above image is 600x135.

Using PIL

We will be using a library named Pillow to find the size(resolution) of the image. We will be using the function PIL.Image.open() to open and read our image and store the size in two variables by using the function img.size.

Python3 `

importing the module

import PIL from PIL import Image

loading the image

img = PIL.Image.open("geeksforgeeks.png")

fetching the dimensions

wid, hgt = img.size

displaying the dimensions

print(str(wid) + "x" + str(hgt))

`

Output:

600x135

Using OpenCV

We will import OpenCV by importing the library cv2. We will load the image using the cv2.imread() function. After this, the dimensions can be found using the shape attribute. shape[0] will give us the height and shape[1] will give us the width.

Python3 `

importing the module

import cv2

loading the image

img = cv2.imread("geeksforgeeks.png")

fetching the dimensions

wid = img.shape[1] hgt = img.shape[0]

displaying the dimensions

print(str(wid) + "x" + str(hgt))
