Acquisition Of Airborne Imagery In Support Of Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Recovery Assessments, Charles R. Bostater, Frank Edgar Müller-Karger
Acquisition Of Airborne Imagery In Support Of Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Recovery Assessments, Charles R. Bostater, Frank Edgar Müller-Karger
Ocean Engineering and Marine Sciences Faculty Publications
Remote sensing imagery was collected from a low flying aircraft along the near coastal waters of the Florida Panhandle and northern Gulf of Mexico and into Barataria Bay, Louisiana, USA, during March 2011. Imagery was acquired from an aircraft that simultaneously collected traditional photogrammetric film imagery, digital video, digital still images, and digital hyperspectral imagery. The original purpose of the project was to collect airborne imagery to support assessment of weathered oil in littoral areas influenced by the Deepwater Horizon oil and gas spill that occurred during the spring and summer of 2010. This paper describes the data acquired and …
Resolution Enhancement Optimizations For Hyperspectral And Multispectral Synthetic Image Fusion, Charles R. Bostater
Resolution Enhancement Optimizations For Hyperspectral And Multispectral Synthetic Image Fusion, Charles R. Bostater
Ocean Engineering and Marine Sciences Faculty Publications
Many sensor systems are available for sensing the earth surface from satellites as well as airborne and mobile platforms. Thus, fusing data from multiple sensors is becoming a common theme in earth remote sensing. A major goal of remote sensing image fusion is resolution enhancement. In this paper, optimization techniques are presented and discussed in order to help make an image fusion process a practical method for not only spectral signature based image analysis but also for algorithm development in remote sensing of water. The technique described and explored in this paper includes the identification of feature areas, stratified random …
Remote Sensing Of Shorelines Using Data Fusion Of Hyperspectral And Multispectral Imagery Acquired From Mobile And Fixed Platforms, Charles R. Bostater, Heather Frystacky
Remote Sensing Of Shorelines Using Data Fusion Of Hyperspectral And Multispectral Imagery Acquired From Mobile And Fixed Platforms, Charles R. Bostater, Heather Frystacky
Ocean Engineering and Marine Sciences Faculty Publications
An optimized data fusion methodology is presented and makes use of airborne and vessel mounted hyperspectral and multispectral imagery acquired at littoral zones in Florida and the northern Gulf of Mexico. The results demonstrate the use of hyperspectral-multispectral data fusion anomaly detection along shorelines and in surface and subsurface waters. Hyperspectral imagery utilized in the data fusion analysis was collected using a 64-1024 channel, 1376 pixel swath width; temperature stabilized sensing system; an integrated inertial motion unit; and differential GPS. The imaging system is calibrated using dual 18 inch calibration spheres, spectral line sources, and custom line targets. Simultaneously collected …
