This paper discusses the validation of the operational Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) land product which corresponds to the biophysical variable of the Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FAPAR). The FAPAR value is currently and automatically estimated from MERIS data at reduced resolution and it can be computed using the full resolution using the same phys...

A methodology for image fusion based on the Hermite transform is presented. First, we demonstrate fusion with multispectral images from the same satellite (Landsat 7 ETM+) with different spatial resolutions. In this case we show how the proposed method can help improve spatial resolution. In the second case we show fusion with different sensor images, namely SAR and multispectral Landsat 5 TM. ...

This study aimed to evaluate the response of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index NDVI derived from Terra MODIS sensor to soybean phenology, in a grain producer region of Parana State, Brazil. Landsat TM and ETM+ images were selected to analyze the spatial distribution of soybean fields for this region from 2000/01 to 2006/07 crop seasons. Then pure pixel samples (250 x 250m) that contain...

Remote sensing image data from sources such as Landsat or airborne multispectral digital cameras are typically in the form of digital count (DC) values. To compare images acquired by the same sensor system on different dates, or images acquired by different sensor systems, it is necessary to correct for differences in the DC values due to sensor characteristics (gain and offset), illumination o...

This research study shows the potential of large image-block adjustment with nadir viewing sensor images. The method uses the geometric correction system developed for multi-source images at the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing. The results with 15 Landsat-7 ETM images show that the same accuracy can be obtained with a large image block than with a single image using the same number of ground c...

The paradigm shift from centralized services into hundreds of thousands of decentralized services changes traffic directions and patterns in the Internet. In that light, overlay providers form logical communication topologies, which effect the underlying telcos’ as well as Internet Service Providers’ (ISP) traffic and network management. Thus, Economic Traffic Management (ETM) principles deal w...
