Mathematical Modelling and Accuracy Testing of Spot Level 1B Stereopairs

During a project concerned with DEM generation using SPOT stereoscopic imagery, difficulties were experienced when using Level 1B stereopairs for the task. This paper presents a mathematical solution to overcome this problem which has been implemented at the University of Glasgow. Results are included from experimental tests which were carried out over a test field in Jordan using this solution. These tests used five SPOT Level 1B stereopairs together with a single SPOT Level 1A stereopair for comparative purposes. The residual errors at the ground control points and independent check points are given and show that a satisfactory solution was achieved.

利用遥感和GIS研究塔里木河下游阿拉干地区土地沙漠化

新疆塔里木河流域受人类活动的影响,特别是由于水资源利用的不合理,不同区域出现了一系列生态环境问题,下游地区普遍存在的沙漠化现象表现得尤为突出。通过应用多时相（１９５９年、１９８３年、１９９２年）、多波段、多平台的遥感信息,在野外调研的基础上编制阿拉干地区不同年代沙漠化类型图,并在ＡＲＣ／ＩＮＦＯ软件支持下,对图件进行编辑处理,制作沙漠化动态图;通过ＧＩＳ数据库提供的资源环境定量数据,应用系统论、信息论及控制论的观点分析阿拉干地区沙漠化的演化过程,并借助于ＧＭ（１,１）模型,预测阿拉干地区土地沙漠化的发展趋势。     

利用SIR-C极化数据提取地面参数

本文根据简化的积分公式模型（ＩＥＭ）,分析了面散射过程中后向散射系数与地面参数之间的关系。利用航天飞机成像雷达（ＳＩＲ－Ｃ）获取极化的雷达图像,提取新疆北部地区冲扇的散射系数以及介电常数（湿度）与粗糙度。由图像获得的地面参数数据,可以用于分布冲积扇成因、时代以及其次的关系。     

应用NOAA/AVHRR数据测算局地水稻种植面积方法研究

本文采用在模糊监督分类中增加迭代过程的方法－－模糊监督分类一迭代法,在分解混合像元的基础上,利用ＡＶＨＲＲ数据求算水稻种植面积。根据稻田与旱地存在温度差异的特点,在分析ＡＶＨＲＲ数据统计特征的基础上,增加了第３和４两通道参加模糊监督分类,从而增加了分类橡元值矢量维数,增强了对水稻的鉴别能力。反采用的迭代法是收敛具有效的,经本方法输出的水稻种植面积百分含量图与实际水稻分布十分吻合,测算出的面积值与Ｔ     

流域地形自动分割研究

本文提供了基于栅格数字高程模型（ＤＥＭ）提取流域空间结构,进行流域自动分割的技术方法。该方法包括地貌形态结构定义、流域结构定义和算法设计３个部分。基于本文设计的算法,可以从ＤＥＭ提取完整的汇流网络和分水线网络,两者组成的多边形集把流域分割成具有拓扑结构的多个子汇流区,这个子汇流区集作为存贮流域信息的基本地貌单元,是流域信息进入地学数据库的框架,也是进行空间分布式机理──过程流域分析模型的基础。并以山西离石黄土丘陵沟壑区的王家沟流域为试验区,获得了较为满意的结果。     

Soil characterization based on land cover heterogeneity over a tropical landscape: an integrated approach using earth observation data-sets

Soil is a vital part of the natural environment and is always responding to changes in environmental factors, along with the influences of anthropogenic factors and land use changes. The long-term change in soil properties will result in change in soil health and fertility, and hence the soil productivity. Hence, the main aim of this paper focuses on the analysis of land use/land cover (LULC) change pattern in spatial and temporal perspective and to present its impact on soil properties in the Merawu catchment over the period of 18?years. Post classification change detection was performed to quantify the decadal changes in historical LULC over the periods of 1991, 2001 and 2009. The pixel to pixel comparison method was used to detect the LULC of the area. The key LULC types were selected for investigation of soil properties. Soil samples were analysed in situ to measure the physicochemical soil properties. The results of this study show remarkable changes in LULC in the period of 18?years. The effect of land cover change on soil properties, soil compaction and soil strength was found to be significant at a level of <0.05.
