ERDAS IMAGINE incorporates geospatial image processing and analysis, remote sensing, and GIS capabilities into a single powerful, convenient package. ERDAS IMAGINE enables users to easily create value-added products such as 2D and 3D images, 3D fly-through movies, and cartographic-quality map compositions from geospatial data. C, C++: Proprietary
Kig comes up with a little program (written in Python) called pykig.py which can load a Python script, e.g. MyScript.py; build a Kig figure, described by this script; open Kig and display the figure. For example, here is how a Sierpinski triangle can be made (as an IFS) with pykig:
Image rectification in GIS converts images to a standard map coordinate system. This is done by matching ground control points (GCP) in the mapping system to points in the image. These GCPs calculate necessary image transforms. [11] Primary difficulties in the process occur when the accuracy of the map points are not well known
In HTML and XHTML, an image map is a list of coordinates relating to a specific image, created in order to hyperlink areas of the image to different destinations (as opposed to a normal image link, in which the entire area of the image links to a single destination). For example, a map of the world may have each country hyperlinked to further ...
where ′, ′ are the homogeneous coordinates of the detected image points and , are the camera matrices. x (3D point) is the homogeneous representation of the resulting 3D point. The ∼ {\displaystyle \sim \,} sign implies that τ {\displaystyle \tau \,} is only required to produce a vector which is equal to x up to a multiplication by a non ...
The straight-line distance between the central point on the map to any other point is the same as the straight-line 3D distance through the globe between the two points. c. 150 BC: Stereographic: Azimuthal Conformal Hipparchos* Map is infinite in extent with outer hemisphere inflating severely, so it is often used as two hemispheres.
Rubbersheeting is a useful technique in HGIS, where it is used to digitize and add old maps as feature layers in a modern GIS. Before aerial photography arrived, most maps were highly inaccurate by modern standards. Rubbersheeting may improve the value of such sources and make them easier to compare to modern maps.
