Abstract :
GuiZhou is a typical karst region, the ecological environment background there is complex with sharp cutting surface, steep slope and the cloudy and rainy weather. It is difficult to get high-quality image data. In this paper, the best karst mountainous areas ALOS image fusion method will be searched by the new high resolution ALOS data. The methods are IHS, Wavelet, Brovey and IHS & Wavelet transformation. Based on the evaluation of comparing tests, it is proved that the method of IHS & Wavelet transformation could overcome some problems to achieve high-quality image in the karst mountainous areas and preserve multi-spectral information exactly as well as strengthening spatial resolution of ALOS images effectively.
