  • Positional Accuracy in Orbital Images of High and Medium Resolution: Case Study with Image Sensors of the Spot, Rapideye and Resourcesat Satellites
    POSITIONAL ACCURACY IN ORBITAL IMAGES OF HIGH AND MEDIUM RESOLUTION: CASE STUDY WITH IMAGE SENSORS OF THE SPOT, RAPIDEYE AND RESOURCESAT SATELLITES Moreira, N. A. P1, Felgueiras, C. A.2 e Dutra, L. V.3 1,2,3 National Institute for Space Research – INPE Mailbox 515 - 12227-010- São José dos Campos-SP, Brazil [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The objective of this work is to evaluate and to analyze positional accuracies, through specific sample points and tracks, of remote sensing registered images acquired by sensors on board the Spot-6, RapidEye and ResourceSat-1 satellites and having, respectively, 1.5, 5 and 24 meters of resolutions. A case study is developed in areas of the Santarém and Belterra municipalities of the Brazilian Pará state. In addition of generating reports with positional accuracy information, this paper investigates the relationship between the spatial resolutions and the positional accuracies of the different digital remote sensing image sensors. High precision reference points and tracks, continuous lines, were collected in field works in order to be compared to adjust points and tracks obtained directly by manual digitalization over each considered image. Samples of points and tracks were analyzed for different positional regions of the images and a C language program was used to perform the calculations of point and track accuracies considering metrics of Euclidean distances and error areas. Accuracy reports present statistics and deterministic error measurements, such as averages, variances, standard deviations, absolute values, areas, root mean square values, etc. Such errors were evaluated from the reference and adjust data, for points and tracks, in regions of interest of the analyzed images.

Thenkabail Received: 23 May 2017; Accepted: 12 July 2017; Published: 14 July 2017 Abstract: In the present paper, we describe the design, execution, and the results of an outdoor experimental campaign involving the Engineering Model of the first of the two Argentinean L-band Synthetic Aperture Radars (SARs) of the Satélite Argentino de Observación con Microondas (SAOCOM) mission, SAOCOM-1A. The experiment’s main objectives were to test the end-to-end SAR operation and to assess the instrument amplitude and phase stability as well as the far-field antenna pattern, through the illumination of a moving target placed several kilometers away from the SAR. The campaign was carried out in Bariloche, Argentina, during June 2016. The experiment was successful, demonstrating an end-to-end readiness of the SAOCOM-SAR functionality in realistic conditions. The results showed an excellent SAR signal quality in terms of amplitude and phase stability. Keywords: SAR; pre-flight testing; SAR performance 1. Introduction The forthcoming Argentinean mission Satélite Argentino de Observación con Microondas (SAOCOM) [1] is constituted by two identical Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellites, SAOCOM-1A and -1B, carrying as the main payload an L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR).

  • Trade Studies Towards an Australian Indigenous Space Launch System
    TRADE STUDIES TOWARDS AN AUSTRALIAN INDIGENOUS SPACE LAUNCH SYSTEM A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Engineering by Gordon P. Briggs B.Sc. (Hons), M.Sc. (Astron) School of Engineering and Information Technology, University College, University of New South Wales, Australian Defence Force Academy January 2010 Abstract During the project Apollo moon landings of the mid 1970s the United States of America was the pre-eminent space faring nation followed closely by only the USSR. Since that time many other nations have realised the potential of spaceflight not only for immediate financial gain in areas such as communications and earth observation but also in the strategic areas of scientific discovery, industrial development and national prestige. Australia on the other hand has resolutely refused to participate by instituting its own space program. Successive Australian governments have preferred to obtain any required space hardware or services by purchasing off-the-shelf from foreign suppliers. This policy or attitude is a matter of frustration to those sections of the Australian technical community who believe that the nation should be participating in space technology. In particular the provision of an indigenous launch vehicle that would guarantee the nation independent access to the space frontier. It would therefore appear that any launch vehicle development in Australia will be left to non- government organisations to at least define the requirements for such a vehicle and to initiate development of long-lead items for such a project. It is therefore the aim of this thesis to attempt to define some of the requirements for a nascent Australian indigenous launch vehicle system.
