Exploring Digital Spectral Band Concepts through Satellite Imagery
Exploring Digital Spectral Band Concepts through Satellite Imagery We will be using an online application through an ESRI tutorial to view and work with Satellite Data. It's important to think of how UAS data is similar yet different in how it can be and is applied. For example, We will look at some temporal aspects of the data. It's important to think of how UAS data can be analyzed in the same way. Also, we will be looking at different bands of satellite imagery. Thinking of UAS data, we can evaluate what we can and cannot do with UAS data coming off a normal "color" image. Working with Satellite Imagery: The tutorial first takes you to the Sundarbans mangrove region. You can see a clear distinction between the heavily forested Sundarbans region and the highly urbanized city of Kolkata to the northwest (Figure 7). Figure 7: Sundarbans Mangrove Region To distinguish the mangrove vegetation more clearly, we'll use the Color Infrared band...
