Effect of Scale on the Information Content in Remote Sensing Imagery
نویسنده
چکیده
I. Introduction Over the next few years a large number of satellites designed to image the earth's surface will be launched. These satellites, quite commonly, will have a large range in spatial as well as spectral resolutions. The potential for users to become overwhelmed, not only by the quantity of data, but also by the problem of multiple pixel sizes is very real. Second, individual platforms and sensors will have the ability to image at multiple resolution simultaneously. It may therefore be useful and necessary to integrate, or fuse, the images from a number of sources into a single data set.

Human groups have considered the Behshahr plain of Mazandaran in the past Due to its particular geographical shape, location between the Caspian Sea and mountains, and the existence of some rivers in the region. However, our knowledge of this area is limited to several published surveys and archaeological investigation of its ancient sites. No detailed research has conducted on the formation of...
متن کاملOverlap-based feature weighting: The feature extraction of Hyperspectral remote sensing imagery
Hyperspectral sensors provide a large number of spectral bands. This massive and complex data structure of hyperspectral images presents a challenge to traditional data processing techniques. Therefore, reducing the dimensionality of hyperspectral images without losing important information is a very important issue for the remote sensing community. We propose to use overlap-based feature weigh...
