Introduction to Basics

Remote Sensing (RS)

“The art and science of obtaining information about an object without being in

direct contact with the object” (Jensen 2000).

The science (and art) of acquiring information about an object, without entering

in contact with it, by sensing and recording reflected or emitted energy and

processing, analyzing, and applying that information.

Information usually gathered from spacecraft or an airplane.

In from of aerial photographs to satellite images.

HUMAN’s EYE

Rods (to see objects at night) = 7 million

Cones (to see colors) = 100 million

CAT’s EYE

Rods (to see objects at night) =~ 21 million

Cones (to see colors) =~ far less

The basic principle of remote sensing is based upon the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with atmosphere and the

earth. Electromagnetic radiation reflected or emitted from an object is the usual source of remote sensing data.

passes per second)

Light - can be thought of as a wave in the 'electromagnetic field' of the universe

A wave can be characterized by its wavelength or its frequency

Remote sensing is

concerned with the

measurement of EMR

returned by the earth’s

natural and cultural features

that first receive energy

from the sun or an artificial

source such as a radar

transmitter.

Image is the Pictorial Presentation of Raster. Pixels are called as Picture elements. Size of Pixel gives the Resolution of the image. Smaller the

Pixel size Larger will the Resolution. Every Raster is not image but every image is a Raster.

Imagery and their price ranges

Imagery free of cost

Image Processing

Digital image processing is a technology of applying a number of computer

algorithms to process a digital image.

Back in 1980’s, after computer gain enough speed and memory.

It includes:

Image acquisition

Image processing

The result can either:

An image.

Or a set of representative characteristic of original image.

Like: Classified images

a) Original RGB Image

b) R-component

c) G-component

d) B-component

Why Image Processing?

Its Human erg to get from Better to Best

To have a high Quality images.

To see beyond the human visionary.

To have a precise interpretation.

To extract the hidden information.

To utilize the maximum of the available.

To get a better idea before getting into real-time work-out, like surveying.

Where to use Image Processing?

Remote sensing (e.g. satellite imagery)

Geographic Information System (e.g. image processing)

Medical imaging (e.g. X-ray, CT Scan, MRI)

Forensics (e.g. finger-prints)

Military (e.g. detection, tracking)

In Short Summary of GIS

“GIS is much more than a container of maps in digital form”.

“A GIS is a computerized tool for solving geographic problems”

“GIS is a spatial decision support system”

“GIS is a tool to automate time-consuming tasks that are too tedious or expensive or inaccurate if

performed by hand”

In GIS we usually go with the processing of data, analyzing it, and generating a spatial and non-

spatial data out of our input data.

No dealing with the acquisition of the data.

It is a decision making tool.

It is also a geo-database with temporal analysis.

Introduction To Surveying

Surveying is inter-changeably called “GEOMATICS”.

BUT, ‘Geomatics’ is a Major Field!

So surveying, by definition stands out:

The science, art, ad technology of determining the relative positions of points, Above, On, Below

the Surface of the Earth.

The discipline which compromises all methods for measuring and collecting all of the information

about the physical earth.

Definition

It is the discipline of gathering, storing, processing, and delivering Geographic information,

or Spatially referenced information.

While in Geomatics, we go for all those type of the disciplines that deals with the

measurements of the geo-data, like geodesy, surveying, photogrammetry, GPS etc.

A more specialized field.

It deals with the acquisition of the data along with modeling, and all other GIS stuff.
