ADP, MULTIBAND AND MULTIEMULSION DIGITAL PHOTOS

AUTOMATIC DATA PROCESSING (ADP) TECHNIQUES USING A DIGITAL COMPUTER FOR DATA HANDLING AND ANALYSIS HAVE ALLOWED QUANTITATIVE EXAMINATION OF AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY. SCANNING MICRODENSITOMETER TECHNIQUES WERE UTILIZED TO DIGITIZE BOTH MULTIBAND AND MULTIEMULSION PHOTOGRAPHY. THESE DIGITAL DENSITY DATA FROM 1:120,000-SCALE AERIAL PHOTOS WERE SPATIALLY REGISTERED BY COMPUTER AND THEN ANALYZED, USING STATISTICAL PATTERN RECOGNITION ALGORITHMS. THE FEASIBILITY FOR AUTOMATIC RECOGNITION OF SEVERAL COVER TYPES IS INDICATED. SIMILAR RESULTS WERE OBTAINED FROM THE DIGITIZED MULTIBAND AND MULTIEMULSION PHOTOGRAPHIC DATA.
