Robust compression of multispectral remote sensing data
… and robust non-reversible coding algorithms for multispectral remote sensing data. Although many efficient non-reversible coding algorithms have been proposed for such data, their application is often limited due to the risk of excessively degrading the data if, for example, changes in sensor …

Application of optical and infrared remote sensing to the retrieval of selected land and sea features
This thesis discusses two main areas of remote sensing research and thus is divided into two parts. The first part deals with novel methods for sea surface temperature (SST) retrieval using measurements of the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on-board the National Oceanic and …

Detection of expansive soils using remote sensing in Brits North-West Province South Africa
… be time consuming, labour intense and expensive. Remote sensing has shown potential as a faster, cheaper non-laborious complementary tool that will support traditional methods of mapping expansive soils and geotechnical investigation. Notwithstanding the significance of remote sensing techniques …
