+    cuvis.PansharpeningAlgorithm:
+    Defines, which algorithm is used to calculate the pansharpened image. Available options are:
+    - Noop:
+        "dummy" algorithm, only applies scaling.
+    - CubertMacroPixel:
+        Generates intensity scaling values for the spectral data from the panimage. Can operate without
+        reference measurements.
+    - CubertPanRatio:
+        Preferred algorithm for reflectance measurements. The measurement's and white calibration's panimages
+        are used to generate the panratio (or „panchromatic reflectance“ image). The panratio is then applied
+        to the hyperspectral cube to scale the intensity of the spectra without changing their shape. 
+    - AlphaBlendOverlay:
+        Technically not a pan-sharpening algorithm. Quick workaround to display correlation results on top of
+        the pan image using an opacity value selected by the user.
