Coral reefs are an essential source of marine biodiversity, but they are declining at an
alarming rate under the combined effects of global change and human pressure. A precise …

In the last few years the scientific community has realized that obtaining a better
understanding of interactions between natural systems and the man-made environment …

Details of the chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) distribution in the water of the Zhoushan archipelago
were analyzed based on data from the panchromatic multispectral sensor (PMS) of the …

This paper presents the development and implementation of three image-based methods
used to detect and measure the displacements of a vast number of points in the case of …

Urbanization addresses urban expansion, and it leads conversion of the green space into
the built-up area. However, previous studies mainly focused on two-dimensional (2D) urban …

As the need for efficient methods to accurately update and refine geospatial satellite image
databases is increasing, we have proposed the use of 3-dimensional digital maps for the …

Establishing the ground control point (GCP) network is a pre-requisite for georeferencing
raw image data. Given current typical digital spatial database quality, much interest among …

This paper presents a completely automatic processing chain for orthorectification of optical
pushbroom sensors. The procedure is robust and works without manual intervention from …

Hyperspectral (HS) satellites like PRISMA (PRecursore IperSpettrale della Missione
Applicativa) offer remarkable capabilities, yet they are constrained by a relatively coarse …

The geometric processing of remotely sensed image data is one of the key issues in data
interpretation, added value product generation, and multi-source data integration. Although …
