ABOUT IMAGESAT INTERNATIONAL ImageSat International N.V. is the owner and operator of the EROS-A and EROS-B very high resolution imaging satellites, whose global coverage provide high-quality imaging services, satisfying national security and management needs with maximum autonomy, secrecy and flexibility. Established in 1997, ImageSat launched EROS-A, its first commercial imaging satellite, into orbit on December 5, 2000. EROS-B, the company’s sub-meter resolution satellite, was launched on April 25, 2006, providing customers with increased revisit time and the benefit of a variety of sensors. Both satellites were accurately placed in their orbit by Russian Start-1 launchers. ImageSat serves a global customer base, comprised of governments and international agencies, which utilize EROS satellite imagery primarily for National Security, Homeland Security and Environmental Security, as well as a wide range of civilian applications. ImageSat International N.V. is a Curacao company with offices in Limassol, Cyprus and Tel Aviv, Israel. The Company's offices in Tel Aviv supervise the construction of the EROS family of satellites and the operation of ImageSat's main Ground Control Station. 4 2. THE EROS SATELLITES 2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION The EROS satellites are lightweight LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellites with a single electro- optical camera system. EROS satellites acquire high-resolution panchromatic imaging data. EROS satellites are designed to maximize operator flexibility in the creation and adaptation of the daily image acquisition plan. The EROS Satellites’ high maneuverability enables them to be quickly pointed to image customer specified sites on Nadir or at oblique angles of up to 45 degrees. Oblique viewing enables the satellite to view virtually any site on Earth as often as two to three times per week. The orbital period of the EROS satellites, for one revolution around the Earth, is 94-96 minutes. The satellites complete approximately 15 revolutions around the Earth every 24 hours, with two daylight passes per day through the footprint of a typical Ground Receiving Station. 2.2 ORBITAL INFORMATION Info EROS-A EROS-B Orbit Type Sun-Synchronous Orbit Sun-Synchronous Orbit Orbit Height ~550 km 510 ± 40 km Inclination 97.2° 97.2° Nominal Life Expectancy 2000-2015 2006-2022 Local Time of Descending 10:00-11:00 13:00-14:00 2.3 IMAGING PARAMETERS Parameter EROS-A EROS-B Scanning Type Push-broom Push-broom Sun-over-horizon angle: Sun-over-horizon angle: Imaging sunlight conditions more than 10° more than 10° CCD-TDI, Selectable levels: Sensor type CCD 1,4,8,16,32,48,64,96 Spectral band 0.5 to 0.9 0.5 to 0.9 Sampling Depth transmitted 11 bits 10 bits 0.7 m at Nadir from 510 km Ground Sampling Distance for TDI stages 1,4,8 2.1 m at Nadir from 550 km (Resolution) 0.8 m at Nadir from 510 km for all other TDI stages Swath Width 15 km at Nadir from 550 km 7 km at Nadir from 510 km 5 3. DEFINITION OF TERMS USED IN THIS GUIDE □ Imaging/Acquisition: The action of the satellite taking an image of a requested area (One shot of the satellite's camera). □ Scene: The area that is being imaged by the satellite. □ AOI – Area of Interest: An area in which the customer is interested, that will be imaged by the satellite. In order to cover an entire requested AOI, it might be necessary to acquire more than one image. □ Off-Nadir Angle: The off-nadir angle is the angle between the acquired scene's center, the satellite and the nadir (the normal to the Earth from the satellite's center). Each image operation is defined by its starting and ending off-nadir angle, which changes along the imaging process (as the satellite moves in its orbit). As a rule, the smaller the off-nadir angle is, the better the resolution (GSD) is. Satellite Off-Nadir Angle Nadir Earth □ Azimuth: Azimuth is a direction given in degrees, in relative to the north. The direction of the north is considered 0°, and the angle grows in clockwise direction. Some examples: North North North 0° 90° 315° □ Order: A request submitted by the customer to ImageSat, so that ImageSat will take care of imaging the AOI requested by the customer with either EROS-A or EROS-B. 6 4. PRODUCT GUIDE 4.1 PRODUCTS CHARACTERISTICS ImageSat International offers various types of panchromatic images. Each final product is defined by 4 characteristics: Imaging Technique, Processing Level, Value Added Product (Optional) and Format. □ Imaging Technique: The manner in which the satellite payload is used to acquire the imagery data. □ Processing Level: The level of post processing performed on the ground after acquisition and reception of the imagery at the ground station. □ Value Added Product (Optional): After the processing of the image, ImageSat can create an advanced product from it (based on EROS-B images only).

Because the information is captured digitally, computers can be used to process, store, analyze, and distribute the data in a systematic manner. And because the same sensor on the same platform is gathering images for all points on the planet’s surface, these measurements are globally consistent

  • Geometric Correction of the Quickbird High Resolution Panchromatic Images
    GEOMETRIC CORRECTION OF THE QUICKBIRD HIGH RESOLUTION PANCHROMATIC IMAGES Aguilar, M. A., Aguilar, F. J., Sánchez, J. A., Carvajal, F. and Agüera, F. Departamento de Ingeniería Rural, Universidad de Almería (Spain). Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The new very high space resolution satellite images, such as QuickBird and IKONOS, open new possibilities in cartographic applications. This work has as its main aim the assessment of a methodology to achieve the best geometric accuracy in orthorectified imagery products obtained from QuickBird Basic Imagery. Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), mean error or bias and maximum error in 79 independent check points are computed and utilized as accuracy indicators. The ancillary data were generated by high accuracy methods: (1) Check and control points were measured with a differential global positioning system (DGPS) and, (2) a dense digital elevation model (DEM) with grid spacing of 2 m generated from a photogrammetric aerial flight at an approximate scale of 1/5000 (RMSEz<0.32 m) was used for image orthorectification. Two 3D geometric correction methods were used to correct the satellite data (3D rational function refined by the user, and the 3D Toutin physical model). The number of control points by orthorectified imagery (9, 18, 27, 36 and 45 control points) was studied as well. The best results (RMSE1D of between 0.48 m and 0.61 m) were obtained when the dense MDE was used for the image orthorectification by 3D physical model. A larger number of GCPs (more than nine) does not improve the results. 1. INTRODUCTION Since the successful launch in the recent past of very high resolution sensors, especially IKONOS-II with 1 m Ground Sample Distance (GSD) and QuickBird with 0.61 GSD, many researchers have considered them as possible substitutes of the classical aerial images used for cartographic purposes at large scales (Fraser, 2002; Kay et al., 2003; Chmiel et al., 2004; Pecci et al., 2004).

Paper 71. http://epublications.marquette.edu/dissertations_mu/71 LOVE’S LACK: THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN POVERTY AND EROS IN PLATO’S SYMPOSIUM By Lorelle D. Lamascus A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, In partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin December 2010 ABSTRACT LOVE’S LACK: THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EROS AND POVERTY IN PLATO’S SYMPOSIUM Lorelle D. Lamascus Marquette University, 2010 This dissertation responds to a long-standing debate among scholars regarding the nature of Platonic Eros and its relation to lack. The more prominent account of Platonic Eros presents the lack of Eros as a deficiency or need experienced by the lover with respect to the object needed, lacked, or desired, so that the nature of Eros is construed as self-interested or acquisitive, subsisting only so long as the lover lacks the beloved object. This dissertation argues that such an interpretation neglects the different senses of lack present in the Symposium and presents an alternative interpretation of Eros based on the Symposium ’s presentation of Eros as the child of Poverty and Resource. Chapter one examines the origin and development of the position that Platonic Eros is acquisitive or egocentric and the influence this has had on subsequent interpretations of Plato’s thought.
