Knowledge-Based Enhancement of Low Spatial Resolution Images

Many image-processing techniques are based on texture features or gradation features of the image. However, Landsat images are complex; they also include physical features of reflection radiation and heat radiation from land cover. In this paper, we describe a method of constructing a super-resolution image of Band 6 of the Landsat TM sensor, oriented to analysis of an agricultural area, by combining information(texture features, gradation features, physical features)from other bands. In this method, a knowledge-based hierarchical classifier is first used to identify land cover in each pixel and then the least-squares approach is applied to estimate the mean temperature of each type of land cover. By reassigning the mean temperature to each pixel, a finer spatial resolution is obtained in Band 6. Computational results show the efficiency of this method.
