Abstract :
This work presents a procedure for simulating the eight multispectral bands of the WorldView-2 satellite by means of bands available in the airborne sensor HSS (Hyperspectral Scanner System). Both the original and simulated images were classified using the SAM (Spectral Angle Mapper) algorithm, aiming to discriminate intra-urban targets, namely: French tiles, asphalt/concrete, steel and aluminum tiles, bare soil, native arborous vegetation, and grass. The simulated images proved to be suitable for the detection of all aforementioned targets.
