Implementing Geomatics Techniques for the Increase of Resolution of Satellite Images

Image enhancement is the process of improving the quality of a digital image. Improved image quality is one of the goals of the ongoing effort to improve the information content and interpretability of satellite images. Two sets of remote sensing data are collected for this region: one from the SPOT-4 (2018) satellite and the other from the Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) Landsat 7 (2020) satellite. This study used two images taken at various spatial resolutions of the same location. Two images are shown here: one with a 30 m spatial resolution and the other with a 5 m resolution with multispectral processing. The results indicate that integrating spatial and spectral resolution using geomatics techniques significantly benefits various applications. Before merging the images, it was Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) 11.55 Easting, 5.77 Northing and became 1.52 Easting, 1.45 Northing after merging the images. After implementing the approach, the resulting fusing image exhibits enhanced spatial resolution, and the resulting multispectral image has excellent spatial and spectral resolution. Finally, the improved combined image with great spatial and spectral resolution is prepared for analysis and classification.
