On the Integration of GIS and Remotely Sensed Data: Towards An Integrated System to Handle The Large Volume of Spatial Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are significant issues and problems in the integration of remotely sensed data and GIS due to the differences in data characterisation, data structure and data processing philosophy between the two technologies. Difficulties exist particularly in handling large data volumes in GIS which are unavoidable when using remotely sensed imagery. This paper focuses on the integration of image data with geographical information systems and reports on the development of a prototype relational image-based geographical information system. The application of this system is illustrated using a case study for land and resource management in the semi-arid zone of Australia.

Lack of detailed land use (LU) information and efficient data collection methods have made the modeling of urban systems difficult. This study aims to develop a novel hierarchical rule-based LU extraction framework using geographic vector and remotely sensed (RS) data, in order to extract detailed subzonal LU information, residential LU in this study. The LU extraction system is developed to ex...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal Estimation of PM2.5 Concentration Using Remotely Sensed Data, Machine Learning, and Optimization Algorithms
PM 2.5 (particles <2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter) can be measured by ground station data in urban areas, but the number of these stations and their geographical coverage is limited. Therefore, these data are not adequate for calculating concentrations of Pm2.5 over a large urban area. This study aims to use Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) satellite images and meteorological data from 2014 to 2017 ...
متن کاملIntegrating Remotely Sensed Data with an Ecosystem Model to Estimate Crop Yield in North China
This paper describes a method of integrating remotely sensed data (the MODIS LAI product) with an ecosystem model (the spatial EPIC model) to estimate crop yield in North China. The traditional productivity simulations based on crop models are normally sitespecific. To simulate regional crop productivity, the spatial crop model is developed firstly in this study by integrating Geographical Info...
