The Quchan fault is located in Quchan - Shirvan area which is a part of Chenaran- Bojnourd plain in Kopeh-Dagh zone, NE Iran. The Quchan active fault with northwest – southeast trending is one of the most important strike-slip faults in the area which its activity led to the numerous historical and instrumental earthquakes. The Neo-tectonic activities of this fault are investigated by the drain...

Since satellite and aerial imageries are recently widely spread and frequently observed, combination of them are expected to complement spatial and temporal resolution each other. One of the prospective applications is traffic monitoring, where objects of interest, or vehicles, need to be recognized automatically. Techniques that employ object detection before object recognition can save a comp...

With improved spatial resolution of available satellite images and the ability to collect the stereo images within a short time period, the importance of satellite images for generating elevation information has grown. Most of the users try to use satellite images because of the reasonable time and cost for ordering. The speed of information generation by satellite sensors from planning to exec...

From the immense amount of images being sent to Earth by satellites, it takes too much time for a human to go through each image and classify what the image represents. Therefore, we are able to use classifiers to classify these images. In this paper, we used two different classification methods to classify satellite images. Between the two classifiers we used, both K-Nearest-Neighbor and Suppo...

nowadays the science of remote sensing and satellite data, constitute modern scientific tools,as they provide important information and make research easier in many scientific fields. this research articlepresents an integrated system for continuous monitoring of the vegetation and the human impact on the natura2000 protected areas of strofilia forest and kotychi lagoon (natura 2000 codes: gr 2...

The increase in spatial resolution has enabled analysis and detection of images obtained through satellite. To increase the accuracy in image processing, an unwanted shadow needs to be processed effectively. A quality check mechanism governs the false reconstruction problems. In the proposed paper we would like to suggest use of Lib SVM algorithm. The original image obtained from satellite is f...

Discrimination between texture edges and geometrical edges is very difficult in low contrast images. Satellite images are low contrast images. It is important to extract the edges that are not clearly visible in case of Satellite images. The present work encompasses a new edge detection algorithm using newly constructed differentiator. Chebyshev polynomial based fractional order differentiator ...

As the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. This processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...
