Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The image to the right shows a volcanic landscape in central Africa, including parts of Rwanda, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (formerly Zaire). This image was obtained from the SIR-C multi-wavelength radar remote sensing system, operated on the space shuttle Endeavor in 1994. SIR-C monitors the earth's surface using wave-lengths of energy that are much longer than the visible light seen by the human eye; thus, the hues in this "false color" radar image have little to no relationship to what would be seen in ordinary visible light. The volcano at top center of the image is Karisimba, 4500 m high. The green patch on the lower slopes of Karisimba volcano, to the right of its peak, is an area of bamboo forest-one of the world's few remaining habitats for mountain gorillas. Only some 600-700 mountain gorillas still remain on earth. Because the SIR-C radar is virtually unaffected by weather conditions, it is an ideal tool for capturing images over the cloudy and misty volcanic areas where mountain gorillas live. Nyiragongo volcano (3465 m elevation) dominates the lower portion of the image some of the lava flows that surround it have a distinctive purple appearance in this image. As shown here, remote sensing in wavelengths of energy outside the range of visible light can often reveal aspects of our environment that complement what can be detected by the unaided eye. (This image covers a 24 km by 60 km area.) The global image (inset, below) is a composite view of vegetation cover on land and chlorophyll concentration in the oceans. This image was derived from data collected by the SeaWiFS global ocean color monitoring mission. Wide field-of-view sensors such as SeaWiFS permit continuous, long-term monitoring of the environment on a global scale, providing an important contribution to our understanding of the earth system as a single, integrated whole.

This book was released on 2013-12-24 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews and investigates orbit-related effects in synthetic aperture Radar interferometry (InSAR). The translation of orbit inaccuracies to error signals in the interferometric phase is concisely described; estimation and correction approaches are discussed and evaluated with special focus on network adjustment of redundantly estimated baseline errors. Moreover, the effect of relative motion of the orbit reference frame is addressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The data handling and processing in using synthetic aperture radar as a satellite-borne earth resources remote sensor is considered. The discussion covers the nature of the problem, the theory, both conventional and potential advanced processing techniques, and a complete computer simulation. It is shown that digital processing is a real possibility and suggests some future directions for research.

Download or read book Implementation of Map To Image Correspondence for Synthetic Aperture Radar Image Analysis written by George E. Lukes and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radargrammetric techniques, developed to support stereo mensuration and data capture from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery, have been extended to enable map-to-image correspondence for computer-assisted radar image analysis. This mechanism projects existing digital map data into the image space of a new SAR image rigorously accounting for the sensor imaging geometry and terrain configuration. Prerequisites for SAR map-to-image correspondence include (1) an analytical sensor model, (2) recovery of the image acquisition parameters and (3) three-dimensional (3d) digital map data. Analytical radar mapping techniques address the first two issues. Suitable 3d planimetric map data can be compiled directly from stereo photography using analytical plotters or indirectly using elevation data interpolated from digital elevation models to augment conventional two-dimensional map data derived from manuscripts. The approach is illustrated by selected examples from a case study conducted for a test area near Frieburg, West Germany. Here, 3d digital data for transportation and landcover maps were assembled from cartographic sources using planimetric augmentation.
