WHY DIGITAL IMAGE?
X
RESOLUTION
difference
In raster images, the smaller the area of land that each cell
represents, the higher the resolution of the data, and higher the
spatial accuracy, and larger the files needed to store the data
SPATIAL RESOLUTION
• Depends upon
“pixel” size
Medium Resolution
ground details
0.4 to 4 meters
HIGH RESOLUTION SATELLITE IMAGES
Satellite Resolution
NOAA 1 km
Map Scale
and those with larger ratios (e.g. 1:5,000) are called large scale.
SPATIAL RESOLUTION
Scale 1:500,000 Scale 1:200,000 Scale 1:100,000
The finer the spectral resolution, the narrower the wavelength range
for a particular channel or band
Panchromatic
One Band
Multispectral
Three Bands
TYPES OF IMAGE FOR SPECTRAL RES
23
Multispectral
Hyperspectral
bands
Each satellite has its own unique revisit schedule for obtaining
imagery of a particular area
Latitude
The greater the number of levels the greater the detail in the
information, apparent difference is lower, as eye is more
sensitive to hue than intensity
RADIOMETRIC RESOLUTION
L= 2K
MULTISPECTRAL IMAGING
Viewing a given area in several narrow bands to obtain better
identification / classification of objects
MULTISTATION IMAGING
Observation of the same area from different positions of the
platform to yield stereoscopic data to obtain height info
MULTIDATE IMAGING
Observation made over the same area on different dates to
monitor objects which are dynamically changing with time(crops
growth), also referred as temporal characteristics
