Geometric correction accuracy of IRS-1D PAN imagery using topographic map versus GPS control points

Geometric correction accuracy of IRS-1D panchromatic imagery was investigated using GPS- and 1 : 25 000 scale topographic map-derived control points. The differentially corrected GPS-derived coordinates provided markedly more accurate results than did uncorrected handheld GPS- and map-derived GCPs. The rms error value of differentially corrected GPS-derived control points based on second-degree polynomial was in the order of +/-3 m. Geometric corrections made with second-degree polynomials, using both the map- and uncorrected handheld GPS-derived control points, yielded rms error values in the order of +/-5 m. The results revealed that the uncorrected handheld GPS-derived control points can be a valuable alternative to planimetric control for geometric correction of IRS-1C/D panchromatic imagery with one-pixel size accuracy.

Hierarchical classification of Sentinel 2-a images for land use and land cover mapping and its use for the CORINE system
Demirkan, Doga C.; Koz, Alper; Duzguna, H. Sebnem (SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 2020-06-01)
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of the Sentinel-2 satellite for land use and land cover (LULC) mapping. The commonly known supervised classification algorithms, support vector machines (SVMs), random forest (RF), and maximum likelihood (ML) classification are adopted for investigation along with a proposed hierarchical classification model based on a coordination of information on the environment land cover system. The main classes for land cover and mapping in the proposed hierarchica...
Local Primitive Pattern for the Classification of SAR Images
AYTEKİN, orsan; KOÇ, mehmet; Ulusoy, İlkay (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013-04-01)
This paper proposes a new method for the classification of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images based on a novel feature vector. The method aims at combining the intensity information of pixels with spatial information and structural relationships. Unlike classical approaches which define a static neighborhood via a rectangular moving window of predefined size and relate spatial information for each center pixel to all the pixels within that window, the local primitives (LPs) proposed in this study provide...
Airborne laser scanning data for snow covered biomass estimation
Vazirabad, Yashar Fallah; Karslıoğlu, Mahmut Onur (SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 2009-04-13)
Airborne laser scanning provides reliable terrain data in terms of 3D coordinates. High resolutions Digital Terrain Models (DTM) are in use for many applications, including change detection of surfaces. Also the estimation of the snow depth by making use of Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data acquired in summer and winter is a subject of current investigations. However estimating snow depth seems problematic in vegetation covered areas. This work focuses on the investigation of the snow depth estimation usin...
Planar seismic source characterization models developed for probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Istanbul
Gülerce, Zeynep; Guner, Baris; Kaymakcı, Nuretdin (Copernicus GmbH, 2017-12-22)
This contribution provides an updated planar seismic source characterization (SSC) model to be used in the probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) for Istanbul. It defines planar rupture systems for the four main segments of the North Anatolian fault zone (NAFZ) that are critical for the PSHA of Istanbul: segments covering the rupture zones of the 1999 Kocaeli and Duzce earthquakes, central Marmara, and Ganos/Saros segments. In each rupture system, the source geometry is defined in terms of fault len...
Integration of environmental variables with satellite images in regional scale vegetation classification
Domaç, Ayşegül; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi; Bilgin, Cemal Can (Informa UK Limited, 2006-04-01)
The difficulty of collecting information at conventional field studies and relatively coarse spatial and spectral resolution of Landsat images forced the use of environmental variables as ancillary data in vegetation mapping. The aim of this study is to increase the accuracy of species level vegetation classification incorporating environmental variables in the Amanos Mountains region of southern central Turkey. In the first part of the study, ordinary vegetation classification is attained by using a maximu...
