  • Abstract
    This paper presents an efficient image fusion algorithm which is based on curvelet transform. It makes use of different characteristics of the same geographical area obtained from more than one image, to obtain a more informative image. Experiments have been carried out to fuse monochromatic PAN (PANchromatic) satellite image with a multispectral LISS (Linear Imaging and Self Scanning) III image and it has been found that the fused image contains much richer information in both the spatial and spectral domain simultaneously.
