The rational function model (RFM) utilized for high resolution satellite imagery (HRSI) provides a transformation from image to object space coordinates in a geographic reference system. Compared with the rigorous model based on the collinearity condition equation or the affine model, the RFM with 80 coefficients would be over parameterized. That would result in an ill-conditioned normal equati...

High-resolution satellite imagery (HRSI) offers great possibilities for urban mapping. Unfortunately, shadows cast by buildings in high-density urban environments obscure much of the information in the image leading to potentially corrupted classification results or blunders in interpretation. Although significant research has been carried out on the subject of shadowing in remote sensing, very...

This paper is dedicated to post disaster road network verification and routing using High Resolution Satellite Imagery (HRSI) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms. By determination of damage degree to each road element using satellite information, a modified ACO algorithm is designed and applied to find best routes with respect to each road’s length and damage degree. The mentioned algo...

Social robots are gradually entering the organizational frontline, and research is beginning to unveil implications for consumer–firm interactions. While empirical studies on human–robot service interaction (HRSI) scarce in business literature, other scientific fields have generated an abundance of findings that can inform consumer successfully integrating embodied social consumer-facing servic...

Data products generated from High Resolution Satellite Imagery (HRSI) are routinely evaluated during the so-called in-orbit test period, in order to verify if their quality fits the desired features and, if necessary, to obtain the image correction parameters to be used at the ground processing center. Nevertheless, it is often useful to have tools to evaluate image quality also at the final us...

Interest in high-resolution satellite imagery (HRSI) is spreading in several application fields, at both scientific and commercial levels. A fundamental and critical goal for the geometric use of this kind of imagery is their orientation and orthorectification, the process able to correct the geometric deformations they undergo during acquisition. One of the main objectives of the studies about...

شاخص سطح برگ استخراج‌شده (LAI) از تصاویر سنجش دور پارامتر مهمی، به‌منظور مدل‌سازی مکانی تولید پوشش گیاهی، محسوب می‌شود. معمولاً شاخص‌های گیاهی که با بازتاب طول موج‌های قرمز و مادون نزدیک محاسبه می‌شوند، در برآورد LAI استفاده روش‌های آماری، به‌کار می‌روند اما بسیاری این شاخص‌ها مقادیر متفاوت به اشباع می‌رسند. برای رفع محدودیت، محدودة لبة شده است؛ بنابراین، باید قابلیت داده‌های دور، ذرت علوفه‌ای، ...
