The interpretation and characterisation of lineaments identified from Landsat TM imagery of SW England
Two Landsat TM scenes of SW England and a sub-scene of North Cornwall have been analysed visually in order to examine the effect of resolution on lineament interpretation. Images were viewed at several different scales as a result of varying image resolution whilst maintaining a fixed screen pixel …

Landscape Level Evaluation of Northern Bobwhite Habitats in Eastern Virginia Using Landsat TM Imagery
… population declines in Virginia. Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (VDGIF) personnel identified a lack of knowledge about the broad-scale, landscape level habitats in eastern Virginia. A large scale land cover map along with a detailed understanding of the spatial arrangements of …

Lineament and pegmatite mapping using landsat TM imagery and aerial photograph data: Kaseba-Katota Area, Serenje district, Central Zambia
… of geology, lineaments, faults (interpreted from Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) image and aerial photographs), joints and foliation traces (mapped in the field). Remote sensing techniques. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) as well as statistical analyses applied to this digital database and the …

Assessing ice storm damage to hardwood forest canopies using the Advanced Solid-State Array Spectroradiometer (ASAS) and Landsat TM imagery
… Array Spectroradiometer (ASAS), acquired imagery for nine ice damaged target areas in the White Mountain National Forest (WMNF). Ice damage was also measured in situ at 288 sample plots. Radiance values for nadir ASAS images were normalized and the blue shift of the red edge was …

Monitoring desertification in south west Tripoli using multi-temporal remotely sensing data and GIS
… and deterioration of water resources etc. Landsat TM imagery has been used as a source of data to monitor land cover and its change over large areas.In this study, multi-temporal Landsat TM imagery has been used in order to map land cover and their changes during five-year intervals from …

Multiple data set integration and GIS techniques used to investigate linear structural controls in the southern Powder River Basin, Wyoming
… River Basin were mapped and categorized from Landsat TM imagery, a Digital Elevation Model (30 m), and Digital Line Graph (DLG) hydrology files. A GIS program was written using DLG information to eliminate those lineaments that were within 20° of roads and railroads. The DLG and DEM …

Detecting long-term trends in water quality parameters using remote sensing techniques
… available. Moderate resolution remote sensing imagery is a rich and temporally extensive source of information about ecological systems and may be useful for detecting past and predicting future changes in estuarine ecosystems. I evaluated the use of moderate resolution Landsat-5 TM imagery for …

Application of Spectral Change Detection Techniques to Identify Forest Harvesting Using Landsat TM Data
… objectives were to determine the impact of atmospheric corrections applied before the change detection, and the affect post-processing methods to eliminate small groups of misclassified pixels ("salt and pepper" effect) had on accuracy. Landsat TM imagery of Louisa County, Virginia was …

Tracking urban growth and composition along the western portion of the U.S. - Mexico border: 1985 -2010
… spectral library was constructed and applied to Landsat TM imagery. The most complex mix of urban materials required the most complex combination of MESMA models but spectral library complexity was related to the presence of abundant desert soils and lack of vegetation in the eastern border …

Mapping and Modeling Chlorophyll-a Concentrations in the Lake Manassas Reservoir Using Landsat Thematic Mapper Satellite Imagery
… Lake Manassas Reservoir using a combination of Landsat TM satellite imagery and ground based field measurements. Images acquired on May 14, 1998 and March 8, 2000 were analyzed with chlorophyll-a measurements taken on 13, 1998 and March 7, 2000. A ratio of Landsat TM band 3: Landsat Band 4 was …

Arid land condition assessment and monitoring using mulitspectral and hyperspectral imagery.
… techniques appear to be limited. Remote sensing imagery with its broad areal coverage, repeatability, cost and time-effectiveness has been suggested and used as an alternative approach for more than three decades. This thesis evaluated the potential of different remote sensing techniques for …
