14 Background Light (300,000 km per second) A stream of energy packets called photons This stream of particles behaves like a wave or traveling energy Light waves consist of electric and magnetic fields Measured by wavelength (peak to peak) or frequency (how many waves pass a point in space per second) wavelength and frequency are related wavelength x frequency = Speed of Light λ x f = C
15 Electromagnetic energy is a mixture of waves with different frequencies Each wave represents energy that varies at a given frequency. Source:
16 For each wave, there is an electronic (E) component and a magnetic component (M). The Amplitude (A) reflects the level of the electromagnetic energy. Source:
17 Plotting amplitude against the wavelength you get an electromagnetic curve, or spectrum Source:
18 Source:
19 Radiation (electromagnetic energy) is emitted by the Sun, and attenuated by the atmosphere. Specific bands of wavelengths are used for remote sensing
20 xrays Blue.4 to.5 μm (micrometers) Green.5 to.6 μm (micrometers) Red.6 to.7 μm (micrometers)

22 Visible Light - How we see colors Emit/Reflect Absorb Addition of light waves of different frequencies Absorb some of the frequencies you see what s reflected (paint,pigments like chlorophyll)
23 Energy, Atmosphere, and Surface Interactions
24 Sources of Information Variations in electromagnetic fields that can be used to identify and characterize objects: Spectral-radiometric (color, temperature) Spatial (pattern, size, shape, texture,...) Temporal
25 Spectral Reflectance Curves % of energy reflected Wavelength (μm)
26 A B C Spectral Resolution and Spectral Sampling The three shaded bars A, B, and C represent three spectral bands. The width of each bar covers a spectral range within which no signal variation can be resolved. The width of each spectral band represents its spectral resolution. The resolution of A is coarser than the resolution of B. This is because spectral details within band A that cannot be discriminated may be partly discriminated with a spectral resolution as narrow as band B. The resolution relationships among the three bands are: Resolution of A < Resolution of C < Resolution of B Adapted from Source:

59 Aerial Photographs
60
61
62
63 Photos are usually scanned and converted to digital images for on-screen display and measurements
64 Scale most commonly controlled by 1. flying height 2. lens focal length Scale is approximately equal to f / H f = focal length H = flying height
65 Photo Scale Set by flying height, focal length Most mapping cameras use 6 lens Reduce scale by flying higher
66 Increasing flying height reduces scale (objects get smaller, area covered by each photo increases) Increasing focal length increases scale (objects get larger, are covered decreases)
67 Scale is NOT Constant Can be over flat terrain with perfectly vertical photographs - rarely occurs Terrain - some objects are closer to lens, hence larger scale Tilt - causes perspective distortion
68 Perspective vs. Orthographic Views
69 Terrain Variation Causes Relief Displacement Features are displaced radially from their planimetric position due to differences in relative elevation
70 Tilt Distortion
71 Tilt measured as the angle between a line perpendicular to the film and a line perpendicular to the datum. Typically specified to be less than 3 o on vertical aerial photos.
72 How Big Are Tilt and Terrain Errors? Larger errors with more tilt (even under 3 o ) Larger errors with more relief (proportional to elevation difference) Larger at smaller scale
73 80 60 Terrain Range = 0 m Tilt = 0 o Tilt < 1.4 o Tilt 1.4 to 2.8 o Tilt 2.8 to 4.2 o Error (m) Photo Scale (1000s) 0
74 Error (m) Terrain Range = 500m Tilt = 0 o Tilt < 1.4 o Tilt 1.4 to 2.8 o Tilt 2.8 to 4.2 o Photo Scale (1000s) 0
75 Parallax - Relative shift in position with a change in viewing location. Closer (taller) objects shift more. We measure parallax to estimate height.
76 Overlapping Stereophotographs to create parallax shifts
77 Source: Source:
78 Overlapping Stereophotographs to create parallax shifts
79 Relief Displacement Height affects horizontal position Displacement are radial higher outward shift Lower inward shift In a planimetric map, A should occur at the same location as B But is displace by d Question: how much is d? Use similar triangles to find out
80 Similar Triangles Strategy: Measure p (from photo) We know H (from flight record) We can get h (e.g., from DEM) We need to relate d to p, h, and H And solve for d
81 Terrain Variation Causes Relief Displacement Features are displaced radially from their planimetric position due to differences in relative elevation
82 Big triangle CNS Small triangle 1 - Cna Small triangle 2 - ABS We may see: D/P = d / p and D/P = h/h So d/p = h/h d=p*h/h
83
84 So We know H Measure p on photo Know h from DEM Apply equation d = p* h/h Apply for every spot (cell, pixel) on the photo, yielding an ortho-corrected image
85 What about tilt? Tilt plus terrain distortion complicates the equations, e.g., Photo x = x0 f [ m11(xp-xl) + m21(yp-yl) +m13(-zl). Where m11 = cosφ*cosκ, m21= -cosφ*cosκ, etc. The idea is the same photo measurement are used with knowledge of flying height, ground height, and now tilt (ω, φ, κ) to calculate and remove displacement.

90 Besides geometric fidelity, we are also interested in the photo information content How do we interpret the photographs? Select a photographic system appropriate to the task, i.e., scale, coverage, time of year, and film type which best renders the details of interests
91 Scale Without magnification, you are stuck at about 2-3 mm To identify individual trees -10 m across with magnification scale =.5 mm / 10,000 mm, or about 1:20,000 without magnification scale = 2 mm / 10,000 mm, or about 1:5,000
92 Coverage Scale and format determines area per photo, e.g. 9" 1:10,000 scale yields photos which contain 7,500 feet on edge 9 = 0.75 ft * 10,000 ground feet/photo feet = 7,500 ft
93 Photo Dimensions and Areas for Some Common Photo Scales Photo Scale Scaled edge 9 Photo (miles) Width 60 Road (in) Scaled Photo Area Side of 40 ac. on Photo (in, side) 1: ac : ac :15, ,240 ac 1 1:20, mi :24, mi :40, mi 2 0.4
94 Satellite Images Advantages - High view, little relief displacement - Ultra-stable satellites, little tilt distortion - Extended spectral range, from radar to far infra-red - Low cost per unit area (for large study areas) - Digital images, which may be easily enhanced, integrated into a GIS
95 Satellite Images Disadvantages Limited acquisition flexibility, fixed schedules Expensive for small areas, due to fixed frame size Limited scale/resolution Requires sophisticated, moderately expensive systems to take advantage of digital image
