Remote Sensing & Photo Interpretation, Mod6: Spatial Enhancement

This week we mainly worked with ERDAS and learned about spatial image enhancement.  We had a few exercises (one that had to be cancelled due to the wonderful government shutdown) that taught us about the various tools in ERDAS to create image enhancement.

We were provided with an image that had significant striping and image distortion.  Working with the Convolution filter, we used different kernel settings to manipulate the image.  Another tool that was utilized as the Fourier Transformation function.  This function greatly reduced the distracting striping in the image.  Playing around with the different kernel settings and the Fourier transformation editor, a final image was created that has limited striping, yet still maintains a certain amount of image clarity and detail.
