VISUAL IMAGE
INTERPRETATION
IMAGE INTERPRETATION
• When we look at images, we see various objects of
different shape and sizes
• Some of these may be readily identifiable while other
may not be, depending upon individual’s perceptions
and experience
• When we can identify what we see on the images and
communicate to others we are practicing IMAGE
INTERPRETATION
• Images contain raw data which when processed by
humans becomes useable information
INTEREPRETATION
• The act of examining images for the purpose of
identifying objects and judging their significance
VISUAL IMAGE INTERPRETATION
• Visual analysis is the most intuitive way to extract
information from RS data, as it is based on the human’s
ability to relate colors, shapes and patterns in an image to
the real world features
• Human vision goes a step beyond color perception, rather
the ability of a person to draw conclusions by visual
observation
• Training and experience with keen power of observation,
imagination and patience
• Nature of objects or phenomena
• Quality of image
• Other supporting materials such as:
• Maps and reports
• Field observations
ELEMENTS OF VISUAL
INTERPRETATION
• Shape
• Tone
• Pattern
• Site
• Resolution
• Size
• Shadow
• Texture- (For a group of neighboring pixels)
• Association
SHAPE
conditions
images
• In case of fresh buried gas pipeline, the actual pipeline can not be seen
but the changes at ground surface caused by buried pipeline can be visible
STRATEGIES
• Moist soils ,backfill lose soil, presence of buried obejcts can inferred by
the appearance of above conditions of site
• Supervised Classification
• Unsupervised Classification
• Hybrid Classification
Un-Supervised Classification
• Use to cluster pixels based on statistics only.
– Training stage
– Classification stage
– Output stage
Scatter Plot
• A scatter plot or scatter graph is a type of
mathematical diagram using Cartesian coordinates to
display values for two variables for a set of data
– Parallelepiped Classifier
• Accuracy Assessment
• Area estimation
