Abstract

Image analysis is especially labor-intensive in the multispectral domain due to the non-intuitive nature of the data. The data is frequently separated by frequency range into a set of image planes. For image analysts (IAs) and photo interpreters to derive meaningful conclusions from the imagery, the data needs to be fused into a form that is coherent to the human mind. The lines of communication extraction (LOCX) system was designed to merge both spectral and spatial image processing technologies into a user-friendly package that exploits the multispectral aspect of Landsat TM imagery without overwhelming the user with the complexities of the data. This paper discusses in detail the system components, the operations concept and user interface, and preliminary processing results.
