1. A method for normalizing image data captured by camera arrays, comprising;

  • obtaining calibration data for an imager array by capturing images using the imager array, where the calibration data indicates mappings between addresses of physical pixels in imagers and logical addresses within an image;

    storing the calibration data in a storage device;

    normalizing a set of images with respect to an image captured by a baseline imager within the imager array based upon the calibration data stored in a storage device using an address conversion module, where the set of images comprises a plurality of images that are;

    captured from different viewpoints;

    include different occlusions sets;

    wherein the occlusion set of a first image is the portion of a scene visible in a second image that is occluded in the first image; and

    wherein normalizing a set of images with respect to an image captured by a baseline image comprises;

    correcting color differences between the images with respect to an image captured by a baseline imager; and

    correcting geometric distortion differences between the captured images with respect to an image captured by a baseline imager.
