Filtering of Digital Terrain Models by Two-Dimensional Singular Spectrum Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) has been approved as a model-free technique to analyse time series. SSA can solve different problems such as decomposition into a sum of trend, periodicities, and noise, smoothing, and others. In this paper, we validate abilities of 2D-SSA (the extension of SSA to analyse two-dimensional scalar fields) to treat digital terrain models (DTMs). The study is exemplified by a 30-arcsecond digital elevation model of a part of South America derived from GTOPO30. Results demonstrate that 2D-SSA is an efficient method to denoise and generalise DTMs. It can be also used to decompose a topographic surface into components of continental, regional, and local scales.

Presenting a Morphological Based Approach for Filtering The Point Cloud to Extract the Digital Terrain Model
The Digital terrain model is an important geospatial product used as the basis of many practical projects related to geospatial information. Nowadays, a dense point cloud can be generated using the LiDAR data. Actually, the acquired point cloud of the LiDAR, presents a digital surface model that contains ground and non-ground objects. The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach of ex...
متن کاملPredicting the Brexit outcome using singular spectrum analysis
In a referendum conducted in the United Kingdom (UK) on June 23, 2016, $51.6\%$ of the participants voted to leave the European Union (EU). The outcome of this referendum had major policy and financial impact for both UK and EU, and was seen as a surprise because the predictions consistently indicate that the ``Remain'''' would get a majority. In this paper, we investigate whether the outcome o...
متن کاملApplying Two Dimensional Kalman Filtering for Digital Terrain Modelling
Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) have been increasingly used to model the terrain surfaces to provide the 'physical bases' for environmental studies. However, DEM is subject to systematic errors, random noise and outliers. In this paper, a newly developed two dimensional (2-D) Kalman filtering approach to generating optimal estimates of terrain variables from a noisy grid DEM is introduced, whic...

Abstract A significant deficiency of most computer models used for stream floodplain analysis is that the locations of structures impacted by floodwaters, such as bridges, roads, and buildings, cannot be effectively compared to the floodplain location. This research presents a straightforward approach for processing output of the HEC-RAS hydraulic model, to enable two- and three dimensional f...

In this paper, for the first time, the subject of change point estimation has been utilized in the stationary state of auto regressive moving average (ARMA) (1, 1). In the monitoring phase, in case the features of the question pursue a time series, i.e., ARMA(1,1), on the basis of the maximum likelihood technique, an approach will be developed for the estimation of the stationary state’s change...
