Very little work has been done on the systematic evaluation of effect of compression on the accuracy of DEM derived using satellites imageries. Most of studies have been carried out for aerial images and models have been developed which relate DEM accuracy with compression. One such model predicts effect of compression on DEM accuracy as 0.2% of flight height for CR up to 15:1 but these models ...

digital elevation model (dem) is increasingly used these days as an effective tool to extract elevation data in quantitative environmental and land management studies. the improvement of sensors and land resource satellites has made it possible to generate dem from remotely sensed data. dems which are produced from these data are applied not only in the two dimensional (2d) but also in the thre...

BACKGROUND Few personalized e-interventions are available for informal and professional caregivers of people with dementia. The DEMentia Digital Interactive Social Chart (DEM-DISC) is an ICT tool to support customized disease management in dementia. The aim of this study was to improve and evaluate DEM-DISC, its user-friendliness and usefulness and to investigate the future implementation. ME...

Topography is a crucial surface characteristic in soil erosion modeling. Soil erosion studies use a digital elevation model (DEM) to derive the topographical characteristics of a study area. Majority of the times, a DEM is incorporated into erosion models as a given parameter and it is not tested as extensively as are the parameters related to soil, land-use and climate. This study compares ero...

Digital elevation model (DEM) generation from stereo images is an effective and economical method in topography mapping. This paper used the stereo pair methodology to generate the digital elevation model (DEM) from PRISM (Panchromatic Remote-Sensing Instrument Satellite) sensor which is onboard of ALOS (Advanced Land Observing Satellite). The pair of forward-backward is used as stereoscopic im...

With the LIDAR data more wide use in DEM products, especially in urban area DEM modeling, the research on Grid DEM with LIDAR data is more and more urgent. Also users are more desired to acquaint themselves with LIDAR data, especially to know more about the accuracy of Grid DEM based on LIDAR data. Therefore, it is rather necessary to explore the matter of accuracy of DEM based on LIDAR data. I...

Cellular stress response proteins like Hsp70 may be affected by exposure to static magnetic fields (SMF). We examined whether exposure to a 100 mT SMF and GSH-depleting diethymaleate (DEM) would affect the levels of Hsp70 mRNA in HL-60 cells. Cells were exposed to SMF, DEM, a combination of DEM and SMF as well as 42oC. We found that only exposure to 42oC significantly affected the levels of Hsp...

discrete element method (dem) is extensively used for mathematical modeling and simulating the behavior of discrete discs and discrete spheres in two and three dimensional space, respectively. prediction of particles flow regime, power draw and kinetic energy for a laboratory or an industrial mill is possible by dem simulation. in this article, a new approach was used to assess the main paramet...
