In this work a new gap-fill technique entitled projection transformation has been developed and used for filling missed parts of remotely sensed imagery. In general techniques for filling missed area of an image are broken down into three main categories: multi-source techniques that take the advantages of other data sources (e.g. using cloud free images to reconstruct the cloudy areas of other...

High resolution stereo satellite imagery is well suited for the creation of digital surface models (DSM). In this paper, a system for highly automated DSM and orthoimage generation based on CARTOSAT-1 imagery is presented. The proposed system processes photometrically corrected level-1 stereo scenes using the rational polynomial coefficients (RPC) universal sensor model. The RPC are derived fro...

A variety of extensions to the traditional (ACID) transaction model have resulted in a plethora of extended transaction models (ETMs). Many of these ETMs are application-specific, i.e., they are designed to provide correctness guarantees adequate for a particular application, but not others. Similarly, an application-specific ETM may impose restrictions that are unacceptable in one application,...

This study concerned the assessment of changes in coastline Kavvayi beach and its nine islands a tropical coastal wetland using remote sensing (RS) data geographic information systems (GIS), as this sedimentary environment is still poorly characterized. The satellite used were from LANDSAT images (30 m spatial resolution) (MSS—volume 5, TM, ETM, ETM+ volume 6) for period last 25 years (1990 to ...

The disappearance of some glaciers of the world is due to the global climatic heating and other correlated phenomena. This also endangers the other glaciers, providing many repercussions on the availability of natural water resources for agricultural, civil and industrial purposes. This research developed a study process to analyse the status of some Alpine glacier groups (Adamello, Ortles-Ceve...

The small-scale distribution and retention mechanisms of white perch (Morone americana) and striped bass (M. saxatilis) early-life stages were investigated in the upper Chesapeake Bay estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM). Physical measurements and biological collections were made at fixed-location stations within the ETM during three research cruises in 1998 and two in 1999. Results were compared ...

This paper presents the work that has resulted in the SAT processor; a dedicated hardware implementation of a binary neural image processor. The SAT processor is aimed speciically at supporting the ADAM algorithm and is currently being integrated into a new version of the C-NNAP parallel image processor. The SAT processor performs binary matrix multiplications, a task that is computation-ally c...

The studied region in this research (Alborz province) is structurally located in Alborz poly_orogenic system of northern Iran. The purpose of this research is combining the remote sensing and geology sciences to show fault lineaments by analyzing satellite data in a vast region and also comparison between lineaments layer and recognized faults in geology maps. Firstly, two scenes of Landsat ETM...

Motivated by the increasing importance of hyperspectral remote sensing data, this study sought to determine whether current-generation narrow-band hyperspectral remote sensing data could better track vegetation leaf area index (LAI) than traditional broad-band multispectral data. The study takes advantage of a unique dataset, wherein field measurements of LAI were acquired at the same general t...
