Title: Introductory digital image processing: A remote sensing perspective

Book ·
OSTI ID:5166368

This book, reviews the art and science of applying digital image processing techniques to remotely sensed imagery. The digital image processing techniques presented are multidisciplinary in nature, and can be used in most Earth science and social science research by scientists who believe that the analysis of remotely sensed data by computer may benefit their decision-making capability. CONTENTS: Introduction to Digital Image Processing. Remote Sensing Data Acquisition Alternatives. Image Processing System Considerations. Initial Statistics Extraction. Initial Display Alternatives. Image Preprocessing-Radometric/Geometric. Useful Image Enhancements. Thematic Information Extraction. Change Detection. Appendix A: The SENSOR Digital Image Processing System Consisting of FORTRAN Subroutines. Appendix B: Addresses of Public and Commercial Suppliers of Digital Image Processing Hardware and Software.
