Georectification of IKONOS image, January 2004, Heard Island
Entry ID:
SIC_266_267_georectification
Summary
Abstract:
NOTE - this record has been superseded by "SIC_266_267_ortho", which describes a more recent orthorectification of the same two images.
Two IKONOS 2004 images (SIC 266 and 267) were chosen as the base images for the AAS2939 change detection project. The reason for choosing these images where that they were the earliest very high resolution (VHR) image with the least amount of cloud cover for which DGPS GCPs are available and identified on the image by Jenny Scott. The importance of having a base image to register all other images to is to allow change detection between images. The 2004 IKONOS image was resampled to a 0.6m resolution, in order to match the resolution of the Quickbird images (for future rectification and change detection).

The two images were pansharpened (algorithm unknown) by a contractor in March 2004. The image of the Spit was not included in order to reduce the size of the final image and to reduce processing time.
The two images were then mosaicked together by A. Lucieer in May 2006 using ENVI. The image was orthorectified with the 2002 RADARSAT DEM (metadata ID: heard_dem_radarsat02) and GCPs collected ...
