SPOT 1,2,3

2 VHR sensors:


VHR contains three spectral bands/multispectral (Green, Red, Near-IR) at a 20 m spatial resolution and a panchromatic band at a 10 m spatial resolution.

Payload: types of sensors (5) for SPOT 1-3, 4 and 5

SPOT 1-3: VHR
SPOT 4:  HRVIR & VEGETATION
SPOT 5: HRG (high ver of HRVIR), HRS

SPOT 1-3: VHR


SPOT 4: HRVIR & VEGETATION


SPOT 5: HRG (high ver of HRVIR), HRS

Comparison with TM


Improvements of SPOT over TM (4)

1. Higher spatial resolution


2. Higher geometric fidelity


3. Capability of recording data at off-nadir position


4. ability to obtain 3D viewing

Advantages of TM imagery (2)

high spectral res


broader ground coverage

analysis: how? which elements are more important

similar to aerial photographs




tone/colour, texture and pattern more revealing than size (smaller than on photos, hard to tell for indiv objects), shadow, shape, location

background info more or less important role in interpreting satellite iamgery

MORE important.. especially small-scale ones
