3D Classification of Urban Features Based on Integration of Structural and Spectral Information from UAV Imagery

Three-dimensional classification of urban features is one of the important tools for urban management and the basis of many analyzes in photogrammetry and remote sensing. Therefore, it is applied in many applications such as planning, urban management and disaster management. In this study, dense point clouds extracted from dense image matching is applied for classification in urban areas. Appl...

Development of a Small Phased Array SAR-MTI System for Tactical UAV

A small SAR-MTI system is being developed at TNO, aimed at deployment on tactical UAV, such as the SPERWER, in use with the Royal Netherlands Army. The system makes use of modern front-end technology, to provide flexible SAR imaging and MTI modes. Major design goals are 40 kg weight, 500 W power consumption and 50 cm resolution in order to comply with typical tactical UAV constraints and applic...

Launch Processing System

This paper presents a functional description of the Launch Processing System, which provides automatic ground checkout and control of the Space Shuttle launch site and airborne systems, with emphasis placed on the Checkout, Control, and Monitor Subsystem. Hardware and software modular design concepts for the distributed computer system are reviewed relative to performing system tests, launch op...
