Determination of the Optimum Path on the Earth’s Surface

چکیده
Various algorithms have been proposed for the determination of the optimum paths in linear networks. Moving on a surface is a far more complex problem, where research has been scarce. An example would be the determination of the shortest sea course between two given ports. This paper presents a solution to the problem, which can be easily applied to a variety of surfaces, while considering different travel cost models. The applicability of the solution to representative surfaces is examined.

The problem of downward continuation of the gravity field from the Earth’s surface to the reference ellipsoid arises from the fact that the solution to the boundary value problem for geoid determination without applying Stokes formula is sought in terms of the disturbing potential on the ellipsoid but the gravity observations are only available on the Earth’s surface. Downward continuation is a...
متن کاملAn Improvement on Land Surface Temperature Determination by Producing Surface Emissivity Maps
Emissivity mapping of the Earth’s surface is the prerequisite to thermal remote sensing. A precise determinationof a surface's temperature is dependent upon the availability of precise emissivity data for that surface. The presentstudy area is a part of sugarcane plantation fields in the west part of Khuzestan province. In this work, TemperatureEmissivity Separation algorithm (TES) was applied ...
متن کاملMulti-Observations Initial Orbit Determination based on Angle-Only Measurements
A new approach with the ability to use the multiple observations based on the least square approach has been proposed for initial orbit determination. This approach considers the Earth’s Oblateness by using the developed Lagrange coefficients. The efficiency of the proposed method has been tested in two scenarios. The first scenario is to use the simulated and the second one is to utilize the r...

Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS), also referred to as LiDAR, is a rather new technique to produce dense and high precision measurements of the topography of the Earth’s surface (Ackermann, 1999; Kraus, 2004, 449470; Wehr and Lohr, 1999). The scanning device is typically mounted at the bottom or below an aeroplane or helicopter. For the determination of object points, the laserscanner emits short i...
