| Description | The algorithm is referred to as the Automatic Segment Matching Algorithm (ASMA). The ASMA uses control points or the annotation record of a P-format LANDSAT compter compatible tape as the initial registration to relate latitude and longitude to LANDSAT rows and columns. It searches a given area of LANDSAT data with a 2x2 sliding window and computes gradient values for bands 5 and 7 to match the segment boundaries. The gradient values are held in memory during the shifting (or matching) process. The reconstructed segment array, containing ones (1's) for boundaries and zeros elsewhere are computer compared to the LANDSAT array and the best match computed. Initial testing of the ASMA indicates that it has good potential for replacing the manual technique. |
