Development of Systematic Image Preprocessing of LAPAN-A3/IPB Multispectral Images [CL]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1901.09189


As of any other satellite images, LAPAN-A3/IPB multispectral images suffered from both geometric and radiometric distortions which need to be corrected. LAPAN as satellite owner has developed image preprocessing algorithm to process raw image into systematically corrected image. This research aims to evaluate the performance of the developed algorithm, particularly the performance of lens vignetting and band co-registration correction as well as the performance of direct image georeferencing. Lens vignetting distortion occurs on image was corrected by using pre-flight calibration data, while calculation of direct georeferencing was done by using satellite metadata of satellite position and attitude. Meanwhile, band co-registration correction was conducted based entirely on the image being processed using image matching approach. Based on several results and analysis which have been done, lens vignetting effects on image can be suppressed significantly from about 40 percent down to 10 percent, band coregistration error can be reduced to below 2-3 pixels in average, and the calculated direct georeferencing has 3000 meter accuracy. The results show that the developed image preprocessing algorithm has moderately good performance to process LAPAN-A3/IPB multispectral images.
