A relevant issue in Remote Sensing (RS) and GIS is related to the analysis and the characterization of Land Use Land Cover (LULC) changes, very useful for a wide range of environmental applications and to efficiently undertake landscape planning and management policies. The methodology described has been applied to a case-study conducted in the area of the Province of Avellino (Southern Italy)....

Following rapid development of economy in China, great changes also take place in landuse status, especially in the urban area. In order to quickly and truly acquire the information of landuse changes and status in quo, aid the government to scientifically manage the land resource, National Land and Resource Department executes a Landuse RS Monitoring project that began from 1999 and will keep ...

Remote Sensing and Computer Vision, Universitaet Karlsruhe, Englerstr. 7, 76131, Karlsruhe, Germany Currently, as modern airborne small-footprint laser scanners (airborne LiDAR) are increasingly employed for various urban applications, e.g. building reconstruction, 3d city modeling and planning. Change detection for urban areas using LiDAR technique, which mainly served for damaged building ass...

tall buildings despite their different features and impacts are just defined by their height. the main problem of defining tall buildings in cities in terms of urban landscape is that this definition does not have an appropriate relativity, and only includes the investigation of tall buildings based on their height. applying the criteria for locating, architecture and height of tall buildings i...

Combined processing using different sensor types, i.e. for applications like change detection, requires a good geo-referencing. Furthermore the individual sensor properties have to be taken into account. SAR systems are side-looking and run-time systems. They suffer from occlusions and ambiguities especially in urban areas. Additionally layover and shadow effects disturb the geo-referencing of ...

It is very popular to monitor the changes of urban areas via synthetic aperture radar data, which is rarely influenced by weather conditions or imaging time. However, change detection using multi-temporal SAR data may confront with difficulties, due to the highly speckled noise generated by the coherent imaging mechanism. Thus SAR images change detection algorithms mainly contains three steps: ...

the net analyte signal standard addition method was used for simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of sertraline and fluoxetine in pharmaceutical preparations. the method combines the advantages of the standard addition method with the net analyte signal concept to enable the extraction of information about an analyte from the spectra of multi-component mixtures. this method uses full s...

We propose a system for performing structural change detection in street-view videos captured by a vehiclemounted monocular camera over time. Our approach is motivated by the need for more frequent and efficient updates in the large-scale maps used in autonomous vehicle navigation. Our method chains a multi-sensor fusion SLAM and fast dense 3D reconstruction pipeline, which provide coarsely reg...
