Definición

  • Image processing is the application of software to digital satellite or aerial imagery in an effort to enhance the imagery and/or highlight features with the intent to gather information about the landscape and its spatial patterns. A few examples of how geographers use image-processing techniques include analyzing land cover and land use, detecting changes to the landscape, updating existing maps, analyzing vegetation patterns, performing biophysical analysis, supporting siting analysis, and studying environmental hazards and disaster recovery.
