摘要: |
Current approaches to evaluating the condition of natural resources on Army training and testing lands are statistically based and attempt to generate rational mathematical formulae that characterize the relationship between satellite imagery and ground-truth data. Even in the hands of a well trained image processing expert, the application of standard image processing tools can yield varying results. Army land managers need an alternate approach for correlating satellite imagery to ground-truth measurements. This approach can be found in the application of neural networks. This report presents the research results of using neural networks as a computational tool to correlate ground-truth data with satellite imagery for Hohenfels, Germany, and to turn the imagery into maps of the installation.
