    Technology and Methodology
    AN EFFICIENT REMOTE SENSING IMAGE GROUND CONTROL
    POINT MATCHING ALGORITHM BASED ON DYNAMIC TEMPLATE
    DENG Xiao-Lian, WANG Chang-Yao, WANG Wen, ZHANG Qing-Yuan, LI Xiang-Jun
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 7-11.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.02
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (1235KB) ( 1417 )

      There exist some shortages in the traditional image matching algorithm based on gray degree, such as huge quantities of calculation, relatively low accuracy, and too many restrictions in application. In order to solve these problems, this paper puts forward an optimized remote sensing image matching algorithm. The main ideas include the following several aspects: On the basis of confirming the subimage of the target image by understanding prior knowledge of remote sensing image, the first step is to search the subimage of the target image non-equidistantly with dynamic template, the second step is to locate the target position by two threshold gray degree correlation coefficients and conformal transform, and the last step is to judge the target position of the ground control point not recognized correctly by the spatial location relations of ground control points. The work flow is introduced in detail. Moreover, a comparison experiment on traditional and modified image matching algorithms is performed with an ASTER image and a TM image. From the results obtained, we can reach the conclusion that the modified algorithm is superior to the traditional algorithm in that it has much more higher accuracy and efficiency than the latter and hence it should have higher adaptability and applicability.

    CHEN Quan, LI Zhen, WANG Lei
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 12-15.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.03
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (1324KB) ( 1392 )

     An algorithm for soil moisture change estimation is proposed  by using S-band (3.0GHz) and VV polarization simulated backscattering-data based on IEM model. Such typical parameters as soil moisture, surface roughness and incidence angle are chosen to simulate two radar images for validation and improvement of the algorithm. The comparison results are well consistent with the inputting parameters under the applicable condition, which shows that the method can estimate spatial and temporal change of soil moisture.

    DONG Yan-Fang, SUN Guo-Qing, PANG Yong, FU An-Min
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 16-19.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.04
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (5532KB) ( 1435 )

     Although optical remote sensing images have relatively high spatial resolution, they are frequently

    disturbed by atmospheric conditions. If these disturbances can be eliminated or reduced, the application field of

    these images will be extended. In this paper, some atmospheric correction methods have been described both in theory

    and in application, and they are used on the same TM image. A comparison of the results has led the authors to

    conclude that the algorithm presented by Liang Shunlin is better than other methods.

    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 20-23.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.05
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (588KB) ( 1222 )

    Leaf area index(LAI)is a crucial parameter of vegetation canopy structure and controls a number of

    biophysical processes of vegetation. In this paper, a mixed model which combines the statistics model with the optical

    model is presented to estimate LAI from Landsat-5 TM image data. Firstly, the model calculates and outputs a lookup

    table (LUT) by useing of FCR model. and then, LAI mapping is conducted based on the empirical relations resulting from

    the LUT. The results indicate that, being simple and easy to operate, the method can be used to estimate accurately

    the LAI of reed marsh.

    A STUDY ON FOREST BIOPHYSICAL PARAMETER IMPACT
    ON RADAR SIGNATURE AND EXTRACTION OF FOREST
    STOCK VOLUME BY MEANS OF RADARSAT-SAR
    WANG Chen-Li, NIU Zheng, GUO Zhi-Xin, CONG Pi-Fu, DENG Xiao-Lian
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 24-28.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.06
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (384KB) ( 1622 )

     Based on the field survey data, this paper has analyzed the capability of Radarsat-SAR data on extracting

    the forest stock volume. The results obtained show that the Radarsat-SAR backscatter coefficient has a relatively good

    correlation with the forest stock volume, tree height and diameter at the breast height. Studies also show that the

    backscatter coefficient is much more affected by height than by diameter at the breast height. It is held that C band

    of SAR can be used to extract forest stem volume in a large plantation but is not suitable for forest survey.

    THE APPLICATION OF TIME-SERIES FOURIER ANALYSIS TO
    RECONSTRUCTING CLOUD-FREE NDVI IMAGES
    WANG Dan, JIANG Xiao-Guang, TANG Ling-Li, XI Xiao-Huan
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 29-32.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.07
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (446KB) ( 2015 )

     This paper applied the Harmonic Analysis of Time Series (HANTS) algorithm based on Fourier transformation

    to predigest and compress the NOAA/AVHRR Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) time-series images, and at the

    same time, wipe off and fill in the data where cloud cover and misdata are examined. The HANTS algorithm outputs such

    Fourier components as amplitude components and phase components. A fit curve is built according to the Fourier

    components. Temporal interpolation according to the curve makes it possible to reconstruct the sequential time-series

    images.

    AND HIGH-RESOLUTION SAR IMAGES
    ZHU Jun-Jie, GUO Hua-Dong, FAN Xiang-Tao, ZHU Bo-Qin
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 36-39.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.09
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (603KB) ( 1444 )

     This paper has classified the high-resolution SAR images obtained along the Huaihe River in July 2003. The authors first analyzed the high-resolution SAR image and pointed out the disturbing factors. After filtering the noise, the SAR image was decomposed with wavelet transform and the energy of the textures was computed by selecting a small window. Finally, the BP algorithm was used to classify the textures. The results indicate that, with the wavelet texture classification method, the high classification precision for the single-band, single-polarized and high-resolution SAR images can be obtained. This paper has also analyzed the shortages of the texture classification method for high-resolution SAR images and pointed out the research direction of the high-resolution SAR image classification.

    FOR DESERTIFICATION DETECTION
    ZENG Yong-Nian, FENG Zhao-Dong, XIANG Nan-Ping
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 40-44.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.10
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (855KB) ( 1219 )

     Based on experiments and theoretical reasoning, the authors have analyzed quantitatively the relationship between the desertification and vegetation index (NDVI) and the land surface temperature (LST). The combined information contained in the LST-NDVI space is extracted to form a new index, namely difference index of desertification (DDI), which is then used to identify the severity of desertification. With this index, we can easily get to know biophysical properties of the land surface.

    THE DISCOVERY OF ZHENGZHOU—LANKAO
    REGIONAL CONCEALED FAULT AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE
    ZHU Jia-Wei, ZHAO Yun-Zhang, WANG Xiao-Qing, XU Li
    REMOTE SENSING FOR LAND & RESOURCES. 2005, 17 (2): 55-59.   DOI: 10.6046/gtzyyg.2005.02.13
    Abstract   HTML   PDF (2607KB) ( 1316 )

    Characterized by strong erosion of the south river bank from the Jingguang railway bridge in Zhengzhou to Dongbatou in Lankao, the lower reach of the Yellow River, which is a hanging river in this part, runs along Jiyuan—Kaifeng rift, with Taikang uplift on the southern side. With the discovery of Zhengzhou—Lankao regional concealed fault between Jiyuan—Kaifeng rift and Taikang uplift based on the interpretation of remote sensing and geophysical exploration information, the following phenomena can be explained reasonably: How does the river come into being, develop and evolve?  What causes the river to stretch straightly from Zhengzhou to Lankao in the EW direction in spite of the fact that the river bed shifts in the river channel?  Why does the river erode the south bank most strongly? The discovery of the fault and the river erosion characteristics is of great significance in river improvement and flood prevention in the lower reach of the Yellow River.

     On the basis of RS and GIS technology, Such indexes as mean area per patch, fractal dimension, patch

    elongation, diversity, contagion, fragmentation and the TM images in 1997, 2000 and 2002 were used to study the

    regional landscape characteristics and dynamic changes of the northern part of Chongqing city. The results show that

    the regional landscape characteristics experienced deep changes in five years, from an urban-rural transitional zone

    to a rapidly urbanized landscape. Various kinds of urban areas are expanding persistently and become spatially

    centralized. On the other hand, the cultivated land and woodland were divided up and nibbled at, which damaged the

    regional ecological environment.
