Radiometric Quality of Ultracam-x Images
نویسنده
چکیده
The large digital frame camera UltraCamX was introduced in 2006 by Vexcel Imaging (a Microsoft Company). This paper will give a short technical overview about the concept of the camera and more information on the radiometric quality of the UltraCamX. The focus in this paper is set on the radiometric quality of the sensors. Already recorded image data are analyzed in detail for their radiometric performance. In addition, some experiments with color targets have been performed to show the radiometric performance of the camera. The results of both analyses are presented in this paper.

Biomass Estimation Using Digital Photogrammetric Cameras
Estimating and modelling biomass can be helpful for biomass management. It is also interesting to calculate the amount of biomass in a certain area for carbon implications, as indicated by the Kyoto protocol. In the past remote sensing techniques have been able to estimate biomass by using reflectance in the both the red and the near infrared wavelengths. Nowadays the sensors in the digital pho...

The so-called German camera evaluation project was initiated by the German society of Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformation (DGPF) in order to allow for comprehensive empirical test on photogrammetric digital airborne camera systems. During this test, the digital camera systems DMC, Ultracam-X, ADS40 (2nd generation), JAS-150, Quattro DigiCAM and AIC-x1 were flown in the test site V...
متن کاملRadiometric Calibration of Digital Photogrammetric Camera Image Data
Since a few years, digital frame cameras are being used for the recurrent conventional photogrammetric mapping tasks within Flanders (Belgium). As a result, area-wide, but mixed-sensor-type (Ultracam, DMC, ...) time series of digital airborne imagery are emerging. Since only recently, a trend can be observed that this imagery is increasingly used for environmental mapping tasks, such as agricul...
