This paper initially proves mathematically that the solution of the relative orientation of the push broom stereo images leads to a set of ill-posed system of observation equations which means no relative orientation for this kind of imageries is possible. It is then demonstrated that the only way to bypass the inherent rank deficiency in the system of the relative orientation equations, is to ...

The present technology does not permit the 7-μm CCD push broom optical sensor to image a region of 70 km. Therefore the IRS –1C satellite use three separate 4096 CCD push broom optical sensor resulting in three array images. Two different methods to ortho-rectify and mosaic the three IRS-1 array images are presented. Results using the CCRS modelling show an accuracy of about one pixel. Future r...

Successful control of invasive exotic plants depends to a large degree on the regeneration potential of the target exotic species and other species that might also be influenced by the removal effort. In coastal grasslands of California, exotic French broom ( Genista monspessulana ) forms both dense stands aboveground and abundant seed banks belowground. Land managers attempt to reduce broom co...

The non-uniformity is a time-dependent noise caused by the lack of sensor equalization. We present here the detailed algorithm and online demo of the non-uniformity correction method by midway infrared equalization. This method was designed to suit infrared images. Nevertheless, it can be applied to images produced for example by scanners, or by push-broom satellites. This single image method w...

We investigated age and size class structures of Scotch broom stands, and the effects of invasion on the native plant community, in the high-altitude grasslands of the Nilgiris, South India. Girth, height and age of broom stems were recorded. Native vegetation cover was assessed under broom and in the surrounding grasslands. Age was positively correlated with girth and height of broom. Middle-a...

in 2010- 2012 surveys, witches'- boom disease of tomato was observed in borazjan area (bushehr province, iran). agent of the disease was transmitted from tomato to tomato and eggplant by grafting and to madagascar periwinkle via dodder inoculation, inducing phytoplasma-type symptoms in inoculated plants. presence of phytoplasma in naturally affected tomatoes and all symptomatic graft and dodder...

The SRC or Super Resolution Channel is the framing imaging subsystem of the HRSC experiment on the ESA Mars Express spacecraft, designed to show high-resolution detail within the broad swath of the HRSC push-broom camera. It has a separate optical system (focal length 980 mm, f/11) and a 1024x1024 CCD detector, achieving a ground pixel size of 2.3 m from an altitude of 250 km [1]. By December 2...

DNA of 10 lines of rice yellow dwarf (RYD) mycoplasmalike organisms (MLOs) from Japan, the Phillippines, and Thailand hybridized with four probes containing chromosomal and six probes containing extrachromosomal DNA of a Tochigi (Japan) line of RYD MLO. One chromosomal probe (RYD9) and all six extrachromosomal probes hybridized with various other MLOs (sugarcane white leaf, onion yellows, ciner...
