Evaluating the potential of multispectral airborne lidar for topographic mapping and land cover classification
V. Wichmann,Magnus Bremer,J. Lindenberger,Martin Rutzinger,Martin Rutzinger,Christian Georges,Frederic Petrini-Monteferri +6 more
TL;DR: This paper presents an explorative analysis of the first airborne collected data with focus on class specific spectral signatures, and shows that this first flight data set is suitable for conventional geometrical classification and mapping procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectral sensitivity of ALOS, ASTER, IKONOS, LANDSAT and SPOT satellite imagery intended for the detection of archaeological crop marks
TL;DR: IKONOS RSR filters can better distinguish buried archaeological remains as a result of difference in healthy and stress vegetation, and is different from the rest of sensors compared in this study.
