Sumario: | In this work a new gap-fill technique entitled projection transformation has been developed and used for filling missing parts of remotely sensed imagery. In general techniques for filling missing areas of an image break down into three main categories: first multi-source techniques that take advantages of other data sources (e.g. using cloud free images to fabricate the cloudy areas of other images); the second ones that fabricate the gap areas using non-gapped parts of an image itself, this group of techniques are referred to as single-source gap-fill procedures; and the third group which applies methods that are a combination of both mentioned techniques, therefore they are called hybrid gap- fill procedures. Here a new developed multi-source methodology called “projection transformation for filling a simulated gapped area in Landsat7/ETM+ imagery” is introduced. The auxiliary imagery for filling the gaps is an earlier obtained L7/ETM+ imagery. Quality of the technique was evaluated from three points of view: statistical accuracy measuring, visual comparison, and post classification accuracy assessment. These evaluation indicators are compared to the results obtained from a commonly used technique by the USGS, the Local Linear Histogram Matching (LLHM) [1]. Results show the superiority of our technique over LLHM in almost all aspects of accuracy. |
