Image fusion for enhanced forest structure assessment
This research explores the potential benefits of fusing active and passive medium resolution satellite-borne sensor data for forest structural assessment. Image fusion was applied as a means of retaining disparate data features relevant to modeling and mapping of forest structural attributes in even-aged (4-11 years) Eucalyptus plantations, located in the southern Kwazulu-Natal midlands of Sout...
متن کاملSPOT-5 Spectral and Textural Data Fusion for Forest Mean Age and Height Estimation
Precise estimation of the forest structural parameters supports decision makers for sustainable management of the forests. Moreover, timber volume estimation and consequently the economic value of a forest can be derived based on the structural parameter quantization. Mean age and height of the trees are two important parameters for estimating the productivity of the plantations. This research ...
متن کاملMedium Resolution Image Fusion, Does It Enhance Forest Structure Assessment
This research explored the potential benefits of fusing optical and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) medium resolution satellite-borne sensor data for forest structural assessment. Image fusion was applied as a means of retaining disparate data features relevant to modeling and mapping of forest structural attributes in even-aged (4-11 years) Eucalyptus plantations, located in the southern Kwazul...
متن کاملImage Fusion Techniques and Quality Assessment Parameters for Clinical Diagnosis: A Review
Image fusion is a tool that serves to combine multi sensors images by using advanced image processing techniques. Particularly it serves best in medical diagnosis i.e. computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance image (MRI), scan provides different types of information, by fusing them we can get accurate information for better clinical diagnosis. Transform domain image fusion methods such as w...
متن کاملObject Level Strategy for Spectral Quality Assessment of High Resolution Pan-sharpen Images
Panchromatic and multi-spectral images produced by the remote sensing satellites are fused together to provide a multi-spectral image with a high spatial resolution at the same time. The spectral quality of the fused images is very important because the quality of a large number of remote sensing products depends on it. Due to the importance of the spectral quality of the fused images, its eval...
