 rashatibahCZ11.pix: Channel 16 Final averaged depth in decimeters | Average Depth for each shallow pixel: - Average (N=11): 11 depths in decimeters are averaged
- Standard deviation (N=11) is also computed
- images which yield depth outside Average+/-STD are rejected
- ==> N images survive
- Channel_16: Final average depth is written
- Channel_15: Final standard deviation is written
- Channel_14: Final N is written
==Two champions== - 7 ZCombiner: 14.4 percents of shallow pixels of image ETM_2003-01-10 are rejected while averaging depth
- 2 ZCombiner: 15.5 percents of shallow pixels of image ETM_1999-11-15 are rejected while averaging depth

 | K[blue]/K[green]=0.55 Calibration using Mid waveband - WL[blue ]=485.0 nm at mid waveband
- WL[green]=569.5 nm at mid waveband
- WL[red ]=658.5 nm at mid waveband
is not acceptable as seen in the plot of X[1_2] vs X[3] This yields - ZM[blue ]=45.6 m
- ZM[green]=25.2 m
- ZM[red ]= 7.2 m
|
 | option A One way to alleviate the problem is: - keep WL[green]=569.5 nm at mid waveband
- relocate WL[red] at 624.7 nm
This yields - ZM[blue ]=45.6 m
- ZM[green]=25.2 m
- ZM[red ]= 9.1 m
All Ras Hatibah ETM and TM images were processed using this way: this yields depths 1.4 times deeper than option B We'll see then!! |
 | option B Another way to alleviate the problem is: - relocate WL[green] at 578.4 nm
- keep WL[red] at 658.5 nm at mid waveband
This yields - ZM[blue ]=33.3 m
- ZM[green]=18.4 m
- ZM[red ]= 6.9 m
All Tanzania TM and ETM images were processed using this way, with the result that depths were underestimated by a factor of 1.5! |
The same is observed with ETM images | The same is observed with ETM images |
