  • Radiometric and Geometric Accuracy Analysis of Rasat Pan Imagery
    The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XLI-B1, 2016 XXIII ISPRS Congress, 12–19 July 2016, Prague, Czech Republic RADIOMETRIC AND GEOMETRIC ACCURACY ANALYSIS OF RASAT PAN IMAGERY S. Kocaman*, I. Yalcin, M. Guler Hacettepe Uni., Dept. of Geomatics Eng. 06800 Beytepe Ankara, Turkey [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Commission I, WG I/4 KEY WORDS: RASAT, accuracy, validation, radiometry, geometry, satellite imagery ABSTRACT: RASAT is the second Turkish Earth Observation satellite which was launched in 2011. It operates with pushbroom principle and acquires panchromatic and MS images with 7.5 m and 15 m resolutions, respectively. The swath width of the sensor is 30 km. The main aim of this study is to analyse the radiometric and geometric quality of RASAT images. A systematic validation approach for the RASAT imagery and its products is being applied. RASAT image pair acquired over Kesan city in Edirne province of Turkey are used for the investigations. The raw RASAT data (L0) are processed by Turkish Space Agency (TUBITAK-UZAY) to produce higher level image products. The image products include radiometrically processed (L1), georeferenced (L2) and orthorectified (L3) data, as well as pansharpened images. The image quality assessments include visual inspections, noise, MTF and histogram analyses. The geometric accuracy assessment results are only preliminary and the assessment is performed using the raw images. The geometric accuracy potential is investigated using 3D ground control points extracted from road intersections, which were measured manually in stereo from aerial images with 20 cm resolution and accuracy.
