| 内容記述 | The Thematic Mapper (TM) sensor, which is carried by the Landsat-4 and Landsat-5 satellites, represents the latest generation of an earth resource scanner system. TM applications range from determining the extent and changes of land cover to estimating agricultural yields. The TM has improvements over the Multispectral Scanner (MSS) with respect to spatial resolution, spectral regions, and radiometry. The present paper is concerned with two major objectives related to the analysis of the Landsat TM. One of these objectives is related to an evaluation of the utility of TM in the discrimination of surface cover. In connection with the second objective, an evaluation was conducted of the utility of selected image processing procedures to enhance the capability of Landsat TM to map land cover. It was found that TM data may be used for discriminating smaller targets, such as agricultural fields and city blocks, than previously obtainable with MSS data. |
