imagecolorat — Get the index of the color of a pixel
$image
   , int $x
   , int $y
   )
   Returns the index of the color of the pixel at the
   specified location in the image specified by image.
  
If the image is a truecolor image, this function returns the RGB value of that pixel as integer. Use bitshifting and masking to access the distinct red, green and blue component values:
imageAn image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor().
xx-coordinate of the point.
yy-coordinate of the point.
Returns the index of the color.
Example #1 Access distinct RGB values
<?php
$im = imagecreatefrompng("php.png");
$rgb = imagecolorat($im, 10, 15);
$r = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
$g = ($rgb >> 8) & 0xFF;
$b = $rgb & 0xFF;
var_dump($r, $g, $b);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
int(119) int(123) int(180)
Example #2 Human-readable RGB values using imagecolorsforindex()
<?php
$im = imagecreatefrompng("php.png");
$rgb = imagecolorat($im, 10, 15);
$colors = imagecolorsforindex($im, $rgb);
var_dump($colors);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
array(4) {
  ["red"]=>
  int(119)
  ["green"]=>
  int(123)
  ["blue"]=>
  int(180)
  ["alpha"]=>
  int(127)
}
