Virtual processing software for distributed analysis of high-resolution remote sensing data

In this paper we address a prospective look at the problem of computational simulation for different distributed tasks related to analysis of multispectral data obtained with the use of remote sensing systems as required for end-user-oriented environmental monitoring, urban assessment/planning and natural resources management. This virtual processing software for analysis of multispectral remote sensing imagery employs and unifies some previously developed enhancement, reconstruction, segmentation, classification, quantification and dynamical post- processing methodologies in a simulation tool referred to as the Geophysics Dynamic Laboratory (GDL). Simulation examples are reported to illustrate the usefulness of the elaborated GDL software for algorithmic-level analysis of high-resolution multispectral remote sensing imagery.
