Modelling avian biodiversity using raw, unclassified satellite imagery.
Applications of remote sensing for biodiversity conservation typically rely on image classifications that do not capture variability within coarse land cover classes. Here, we compare two measures derived from unclassified remotely sensed data, a measure of habitat heterogeneity and a measure of habitat composition, for explaining bird species richness and the spatial distribution of 10 species...
متن کاملA Novel Algorithm for Railway Tracks Detection using Satellite Imagery
Image processing applications have their wide ranged importance in today's world. Railway track detection is one of the hot research areas in visioning systems. An efficient algorithm and high quality images of railway tracks are required for accomplishing the desired task. Images produced by Google maps and Google earth are generally not so extraordinary. Their degraded quality affects th...
متن کاملMultilevel Fast Multipole Algorithmfor Solving Combined Field
The fast multipole method (FMM) has been implemented to speed up the matrix-vector multiply when an iterative method is used to solve combined eld integral equation (CFIE). FMM reduces the complexity from O(N 2) to O(N 1:5). With a multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA), it is further reduced to O(NlogN). A 110,592 unknown problem can be solved within 24 hours on a SUN Sparc10.
متن کاملDust source mapping using satellite imagery and machine learning models
Predicting dust sources area and determining the affecting factors is necessary in order to prioritize management and practice deal with desertification due to wind erosion in arid areas. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the application of three machine learning models (including generalized linear model, artificial neural network, random forest) to predict the vulnerability of dust cent...
متن کاملVehicles Detection from Very High Resolution Satellite Imagery for the Development of a Societal Activity Index
This paper evaluates an inductive learning approach classification technique for vehicle detection and enumeration on very high resolution imagery. It tests pre-processing procedures applied to different images in with different atmospheric conditions and automatic detection algorithms for detection and enumeration. This work contributes to the longer term objective that is beyond the scope of ...
