1. WHY WE NEED DIGITAL IMAGE
FORMAT?
• In order to process the remotely sensed data in a proper manner, it is
essential to understand how the data has been organized and stored on the
digital media.
• The knowledge of various digital data formats is essential before the data is
processed or analyzed.
• There are several data formats used to store the digital remotely sensed data.
E.g., BIP, BIL & BSQ.
2. WHAT ARE THE BIL, BIP & BSQ
FORMAT?
• BIL: the band interleaved by line format is stored by lines. In this data
format, line data are arranged to order to band numbers and repeated with
respect to line number.
• BIP: it is one of the easiest digital data formats used for remote sensing
data. BIP is comprised of multi- band data with respect to each pixel number
and line number. This format considers each pixel as a separate storage unit.
Brightness values, in different bands, for each pixel are stored one after
another.
• BSQ: in this format of data pixel number and line number of each band are
separately arranged. The band sequential format requires that all data for a
single band covering the entire scene be written as one file.
3. HOW WE CAN CONVERT ANALOG
IMAGE TO DIGITAL IMAGE?
• Analog remote sensing data may be converted to a digital image for better
analysis using computers. A scanner is used for the purpose of converting
analog image into digital image.
• The scanner serves as a raster input device that can scan a image or text
document by using a light sensitive sensor in order to convert the varying
intensity of light in the image into a digital signal for a computer using
analog to digital (A/D) conversion.
4. WHY SCANNED IMAGE ARE NOT
EQUIVALENT TO DIGITAL CAPTURE
IMAGE?
• Because in a digitally captured image, pixel value represent the percent
reflectance which is the basis for identification of material. On the other
hand, in a scanned image, a pixel value represents only the relative brightness
within the analog image.
5.CAN WE PERFORM EVERY IMAGE
ENHANCEMENT PRACTICAL IN SCANNED
IMAGE? IF IT IS NO EXPLAIN?
• No we can’t perform every image enhancement in scanned image because in
a scanned image, the pixel value represents only the relative brightness within
the analog image.
• On the other hand, in a digital image, pixel value represents the percent
reflectance which is the basis for identification of material. This make the
image more informative and easy to interpret.
6. WHAT ARE THE DRAWBACKS OF DE-
STRIPPING?
• Incomplete removal of stripes: destriping algorithms may not completely
remove all stripes, especially if they are complex or varied.
• Introduction of new artifacts: the destriping process can sometimes
introduce new artifacts or distortions into the image.
• Loss of spatial resolution: some destriping methods can lead to a loss of
spatial resolution or blurring of the image.
• Difficulty with varying strip widths: destriping algorithms can struggle
with stripes of varying widths or intensities.
• Limited applicability: some destriping methods are only suitable for specific
types of sensors or data formats.
• Impact on image texture: destriping can alter the texture and spatial
autocorrelation of the image.
• Computational intensity: destriping can be a computationally intensive process,
especially for large image.
• Difficulty wit non- linear stripes: destriping algorithms can struggle with non-
linear stripes or those with non- linear stripes or those with complex patterns.
7.WHEN WE DO GEOMETRIC
CORRECTION IN DIGITAL IMAGE?
• When a digital image is not perfectly geo-referenced due to some distortions,
in that case we use geometric correction. The distortion in an image could be
many reasons like due to motion of sensor platform, relief displacement,
curvature of earth, rotation of the earth, atmospheric refraction and non-
linearities in the sweep of a sensor’s IFOV.
8. WHAT THE X AND Y IN DIGITAL
IMAGE SHOW US?
• a digital image consists of discrete picture elements known as pixels. Each
pixel has the coordinates (x, y) in discrete space representing continuous
sampling of the surface of the earth.
• ‘X’ shows the column in the digital image which is increases towards right.
• ‘Y’ shows the rows in the digital image which is increases downwards.
9.WHY WE USED MULTI- SPECTRAL
DIGITAL IMAGE FOR THE
INTERPRETATION?
• Multi- spectral digital image is best for interpretation of an image because
multi-spectral image contains more than two or three bands and give the
high quality data or image quality.
• In multi- spectral images we can use different bands combinations for
visualizing and interpreting any object.
• For instance in Landsat- 8 multi- spectral image, we can use 5,4,3 for color
infrared vegetation; 7,5,3 for natural with atmospheric removal and 5,6,2 for
healthy vegetation.
10. IN WHICH SENSOR THE BLUE BAND
WAS MISSING?
• The blue band was missing in IRS LISS- III and IRS LISS- IV band imagery.
