Preprocessing
Digital Image Processing of satellite images can be divided into:
Preprocessing
Radiometric Correction: removal of sensor or atmospheric 'noise', to more accurately represent ground conditions - improve imagefidelity: correct data loss remove haze enable mosaicking and comparison
Geometric correction: conversion of data to ground coordinates by removal of distortions from sensor geometry
enable mapping relative to data layers
Errors
Radiometric correction
Radiometric correction is used to modify DN values to account for noise, i.e. contributions to the DN that are a result of a. the intervening atmosphere b. the sun-sensor geometry c. the sensor itself errors and gaps
Radiometric correction
We may need to correct for the following reasons: a. Variations within an image (speckle or striping) b. between adjacent / overlapping images (for mosaicing) c. between bands (for some multispectral techniques) d. between image dates (temporal data) and sensors

Advanced slide:
DN reflectance values can be converted to absolute radiance values. This is useful when comparing the actual reflectance from different sensors e.g. TM and SPOT, or TM versus ETM (Landsat 5 versus 7) DN = aL + b where a= gain and b =n offset
The radiance value (L) can be calculated as: L = [Lmax - Lmin]*DN/255 + Lmin where Lmax and Lmin are known from the sensor calibration. This will create 32 bit (decimal) values.
Geometric Correction
Corrected image scene orientation map Uncorrected data path
To provide georeferencing To compare/overlay multiple images To merge with map layers To mosaic images
e.g. google maps / google earth *** Much imagery now comes already rectified YEAH !!
Image distortions
In air photos, errors include:
topographic and radial displacement; airplane tip, tilt and swing (roll, pitch and yaw). These are less in satellite data due to altitude and stability. The main source of geometric error in satellite data is satellite path orientation (non-polar)
Scan skew: ground swath is not normal to the polar axis along with the forward motion of the platform during mirror sweep
Mirror-scan Velocity and panoramic distortion: along-scan distortion (pixels at edge are slightly larger). This would be greater for off-nadir sensors. Earth rotation: earth rotates during scanning (offset of rows).... (122 pixels per Landsat scene)
Geocorrection
Resampling -
Rectification
Data pixels must be related to ground locations, e.g. in UTM coordinates Two main methods: - Image to image (to a geocorrected image)
.... to an uncorrected image would be 'registration' not rectification
Ortho-rectification = this process (since ~2000) enables the use of a DEM to also take into account the topography
Resampling methods
New DN values are assigned in 3 ways a.Nearest Neighbour Pixel in new grid gets the value of closest pixel from old grid retains original DNs
b. Bilinear Interpolation
New pixel gets a value from the weighted average of 4 (2 x 2) nearest pixels;
smoother but synthetic
c. Cubic Convolution (smoothest) New pixel DNs are computed from weighting 16 (4 x 4) surrounding DNs

GIS and DIP software can display different projections on the fly but require reprojection for analysis and data overlay
Reprojecting vectors simply reassigns coordinates to points Reprojecting rasters involves resampling every pixel
(using nearest neighbour, bilinear or cubic convolution)
