1. Spatial Archaeology
1.1. detect ancient sites
1.2. investigate underwater sites
1.3. analyze ancient environments
1.4. make maps & build spatial info
1.5. rebuild ancient sites
2. Beijing 1
2.1. Comparison with SPOT
2.1.1. spatial resolution= 2.5m
2.1.2. B1 domestic = cheaper for Chinese scholars
2.1.3. Great Wall= 2-3 pixels
2.1.4. auto-extraction also somewhat problematic
2.2. Details
2.2.1. launched in 2005
2.2.2. launched by China
2.2.3. one of the Disaster Monitoring Constellation (DMC) moonlet
2.2.4. wide image range= 600km
2.2.5. spatial resolution= 4m
2.2.6. high temporal resolution= 2-3 days
2.2.7. Great Wall= 1-2 pixels
3. Extraction
3.1. auto-extraction
3.1.1. Linear Object methods
3.1.1.1. filter methods
3.1.1.2. Grade Direction Analysis
3.1.1.3. Template matching
3.1.1.4. SNAKE Model
3.1.1.5. GIS method
3.2. Characteristics
3.2.1. when spatial res. less than 10m = linear
3.2.2. higher density than environment = high echo on microwave
3.2.3. higher density than environment = high spectral value
