Its purpose is to provide comprehensive information without arte facts by combining the partial information from di...

This study is to take the advantage of shadow appearance in Standard Imagery produced from QuickBird for damage detection in urban areas. In a very complex scene of an urban area acquired from very high resolution satellite-based optical sensors, fortunately, the buildings tend to align in some dominant directions in a small area and posses geometric regularity. Therefore, their shadows also al...

Habitat mapping can be accomplished using many techniques and types of data. There are pros and cons for each technique and dataset, therefore, the goal of this project was to investigate the capabilities of new satellite sensor technology and to assess map accuracy for a variety of image classification techniques based on hundreds of field-work sites. The study area was Masonboro Island, an un...

A new generic pushbroom sensor model for high-resolution satellite images is presented. The sensor orbit and attitudes are modelled by splines. In order to determine the parameters of the orbit and attitude splines, direct observations for the satellite orbits and attitudes that are provided by the data vendors in metadata files are considered. As these direct observations are usually contamina...

The use of satellite technology by military planners has a relatively long history as a tool of warfare, but little research has used satellite technology to study the effects of war. This research addresses this gap by applying satellite remote sensing imagery to study the effects of war on land-use/land-cover change in northeast Bosnia. Though the most severe war impacts are visible at local ...
