Introduction :
•Remote sensing development due to public sector (first Landsat MSS launched in 1972, first Spot 1986)•GIS development due to private sector (growth since 1980)
Today, we observe an increasing demand of data/information at scales from global to local in various fields of applications
Remote sensing and GIS are linked technologies :
To be effectively analysed and employed, remote sensed datamust be combined with other data/Information
For GIS, to be most effective, they need to contain accurate and up to date data.

6Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
The concepts of GIS
Comprehensive GIS require a means of :
•Data input, from maps, aerial photos, satellites, surveysand other sources,
•Data storage, retrieval and query,
•Data transformation, analysis and modelling,
•Data reporting, such as maps, reports and plans.
7Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
The Modelisation of geographic information
The importance of geographic location in GISThe importance of geographic location in GIS
•Management, analysis and reporting of GIS data requires that it be carefully referenced by position on the Earth ‘s surface.
•Many different coordinate systems are used to record location :
some systems are global : latitude and longitudeother sytems are regional or local
•GIS users must be familiar with a variety of commonly used coordinate systems
8Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
For thousands of years, human beings try to draw the Ground as accurate as possible
•How to draw in 2D the real 3D world ?
First step : to know the real shape of the Earth and the way to modellize it => geodesy - definition of the geodetic system
•what is the Earth shape ?•can we find a simple geometric feature to approximate it locally ?
Second step : how to put in 2D the « simplified » shape of the Earth ? => concept of projection

What is the Earth shape ?What is the Earth shape ?
Definition of geodesy : science to study the shape of the Earth.
In the history, 4 figures to model the Earth shape :
• the plane
• the sphere
• the ellipsoïd
• the geoïd : it is a sealevel equipotentialsurface - the surfaceon which gravity iseverywhere equal to itsstrentgh at mean sealevel. Real Earth

The ellipsoid :The ellipsoid :
Ellipsoid earth models are required for precise distance and directionmeasurement over long distance.
Reference ellipsoids are definedby either :
•semi major and semi minor axes or•the relationship between the semi-major axis and the flatenning of the ellipsoid
Many reference ellipsoids are in use by different nations and agencies

In cartography, the geometric system is completly define by :
- the geodetic system :
•the ellipsoïd (major axis, flattening)• its orientation (three angles)• its center (three coordinates)
- the elevation system
- the projection system

Elevation systemsElevation systemsCareful !Two points are said to be at the same altitude if the gravity value is the same,that is water can not flow from one point to the other.The elevation is calculated above a given ellipsoïd, or above the geoïd (a model).The elevation is given in meters or feet, or ...
=> necessity to have a digital model of the geoïd
Modelisation of geographic information
15Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
The aim is to represent the Earth surface on a plane. We have therefore to define two functions giving the planar coordinates (X and Y) from the geographic coordinates (? ,? ).
X = f (? ,? ?Y = g ?? ,? ?
The (f,g) pair is a cartographic projection
The usual projections are optimized to minimize the deformations,the f and g functions so defined are complex

COMPARISON RASTER / VECTORCOMPARISON RASTER / VECTOR
•Any given situation can be represented in both raster and vector modes•The choice is up to the user•Conversion from raster to vector and vice versa is possible•Computers are now able to display simultaneously vector and raster•Vector and raster are seen as complementary
Method Advantages Disadvantages
Raster ? Simple data structure? Compatible with remotelysensedor scanned data? Simple spatial analysisprocedures
? Requires greater storage space oncomputer
? Depending on pixel size, graphicaloutput may be less pleasing
? Projection transformations are moredifficult
? More difficult to represent topologicalrelationships
Vector ? Requires less disk storagespace
? Topological relationships arereadily maintained
? Graphical output moreclosely resembles hand-drawn maps
? More complex data structure? Not as compatible with remotely sensed
data? Software and hardware are often more
expensive? Some spatial analysis procedures may
be more difficult? Overlaying multiple vector maps is often
time consuming
Information organization of graphical data

•Advantage : simple structure and easy to use
•Disadvantage : adding new record is time consumingslow data retrieval without a key
Information organization of descriptive data
Descriptive dataDescriptive data
26Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
defined as an automated, formally defined and centrally controlledcollection of persistent data used and shared by different usersin an enterprise (Date, 1995)
Information organization of descriptive data
Database systemDatabase system
Different database models :
•The relational model : data are organised by records in relations whichresemble a table : the most commonly used
•The object oriented model : data are uniquely identified as individual objects that are classified into object types or classes according to the characteristics (attributes and operations) of the object.The emerging database model
27Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
DATA SOURCES AND DATA INPUT
Of the 4 components of an Information system (data, technology, process and people), data are most expensive to acquire
In many project, the collection of data accounts for half or moreof the capital investment.
The user will need to ensure that the data are compatible with hisapplication and considers :
•the accuracy of the data •the length of the record•the scale of the data•the georeferencing system used•the data collection technique and sampling strategy used•the quality of the data collected•the data classification and interpolation method used
•the accuracy of the data •the length of the record•the scale of the data•the georeferencing system used•the data collection technique and sampling strategy used•the quality of the data collected•the data classification and interpolation method used
28Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
Error, Accuracy and Precision
Data quality refers to the relative accuracy and precision of a particular GIS database
Accuracy : is the degree to which information on a map or in a digitaldatabase matches true or accepted values. Is applied to geographicposition as well as attribute, conceptual and logical accuracy.
Precision : is the level of measurement and exactness of a description in a GIS database
•The level of precision/accuracy required for particular applications varies greatly
•Highly precise and/or accurate data can be very difficult and costly to produce and compile
29Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
The different types of geographical data
Raw geographical data are available in many different analogue or digital forms :
1 2 34 5 12 16 2 1
Satellite images Aerial photographs TablesThematic or topographicmaps
They can be acquired :
•in digital form from a data supplier•in analogue form and manually digitized or scanned,•from one’s own survey of geographic entities (using GPS)
30Thaïlande, September 2001Value-added Remote Sensing Products Development for Geo-Information Systems
Remote sensed images can be integrated in a GIS as
An active layer : the digital data is processed (by classification, filtering, etc..) to extract information
A Passive layer :the digital data is not used, a visual interpretation allows to update or create information

» »Each software use its own solutions to handle the geometric and topological aspects of the data (proprietary format) »
– Commercial format transfert like e00 or DXF have come to be generally– supported by the data providers.
– There is a trend in Gis community for developping OpenGIS and – interroperability. It refers to the need to create systems which support
the– efficient description, storage, access, and transfer of geographical data – throughout organizations, countries.

LAND COVER1973
Forest areas are in green, and the areas deforested between 1973 and 1986 are highlighted in red
By subtracting reflectance measured at the two dates a change map is producedResults of the change detection analysis indicate a net reduction in forest cover area between 1973 and 1986.
The net deforestation rate (i.e. ratio between the reduction in forest cover and the forest-cover area in 1973) is 6.89%, i.e., 0.53% annually.

Spatial Modelling
Several spatial variables were generated using standard GIS analysis tools.
?Shortest distance to the nearest road
?Shortest distance to the nearest town
?Shortest distance to the nearest forest-nonforest edge in 1973
?Spatial fragmentation of the forest cover in the immediate surroundings of each location
All these variables were integrated in a GIS and co-registered geometrically with the forest-cover change map derived from the analysis of remote sensing images.
