How to get "1 pixel wide" coordinates from image?

I have the following black and white picture of a racetrack:

(enter image description here


Note that your image is actually pure black and the information is really in the alpha/transparency channel. You can see that by splitting into the 4 separate RGBA channels and laying them out across the page in a row. R, G and B are black and all the info is in the rightmost A (alpha) channel:

magick track.png -separate -background magenta  smush 20 channels.png 

enter image description here


If you want the x,y coordinates of the white pixels, use:

magick track.png -alpha extract -morphology Thinning:-1 Skeleton  txt: | awk -F: '/white/ {print $1}'
101,6
102,6
103,6
104,6
105,6
106,6
107,6
108,6
109,6
118,6
...
...

Alternatively, you could use potrace to generate an SVG of the points:

magick track.png -alpha extract pgm: | potrace --svg - > result.svg

Gives this:

Another, entirely different option might be to get the medial axis with scikit-image, example skeleton
