Satellite Sensors

 

Image processing includes; image enhancements, georeferencing and mosaicing, image data fusion with different types of images, pan sharpening, color/grayscale balancing and optional orthorectification of panchromatic (B&W) and RGB (Color) scenes and specialized processing procedures used to provide information on:

• Landcover classification and mapping
• Landsat 7 +ETM coastal seafloor mapping
• Landsat 7 +ETM water enhancement
• Coral reef detection and mapping
• Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) classification and mapping
• Lithological classification and mapping with Landsat 7 +ETM, ASTER and EO-1
• Change detection
• Environmental monitoring
• Urban Development and monitoring

Landsat TM4 and 5 Satellite Image Data can be utilized were cloud cover becomes a problem with Landsat 7 +ETM Data around equatorial regions.

Image data is provided in a variety of formats and can be incorporated in an existing GIS or Ready-To-Go GIS Project.

Digital Aerial Photography

A variety of Digital Aerial Photography is utilized for varies Projects to enhance the overall Project objectives and provide an economical solution to many difficult Projects in urban and remote areas. The higher resolution Image source data is utilized to facilitate more detailed Image feature classification and detection.

The dia-positive Image frames from standard Aerial Photography are scanned with a calibrated Photogrammetric scanner at a resolution, defined by the Project specifications. By implementing high standards from the scanning of the dia-positives to the production of the final Orthorectified Digital Aerial Photo mosaic, SIC provides the best Digital Image resolution possible.

The Digital Aerial frames are Orthorectified and mosaiced to provide a near seamless processed Digital Image, with pixel resolutions from 0.05 meters to 2.5 meters.
