Image Grand Tour (IGT)

I Wanted – A method to address:

N Multispectral imagery N Satellite imagery various look angles N Multiple time series

! Seismic Signals ! Electrocardiograms

I Our approach: Image Grand Tour I Original Developers:

Wegman, Poston, Solka

Example 2: MISR (1)

I MISR: Multi-angle Imaging

SpectroRadiometer

N On board of NASA’s Earth Observing

System satellite Terra

N 9 cameras (at 9 different angles):

! 70.5, 60, 45, and 26.1 degrees (forward

and aft), 0 degrees

! 4 bands each: R, G, B, NIR

N Pixels: 1.1km x 1.1 km

Example 2: MISR (4)

I North coast of Alaska (incl. Arctic National

Wildlife Refuge)

I Ice: top - Land: bottom I RGB composite of nadir (0 degree) camera I Challenges:

N Identifying clouds over ice and snow N Distinguishing among different types of ice

(old/new, broken/solid)

I Multi-angle - multi-spectral data allows such

identification via IGT

Example 3: Petroglyphs (1)

I Pictographs from Hueco Tanks State

Historical Park (east of El Paso, TX)

N Faded over centuries N Destroyed through vandalism

I Current digital enhancement techniques

time-consuming

I Use of IGT: faster detection of hidden

features

Discussion

I IGT useful for multiple applications I Fast to find “interesting” features in

images

I Does not produce “nice” images I Static view and movie view of interest I Intended to add new functionality
