Geographical Problem (1)<br />

Fig. Ass. BanaFair (www.banafair.de)<br />

„In the Koran, the Banana plant is mentioned as a tree of<br />

paradise, but international companies enhance their areas of<br />

banana plantations continuously and are transforming the tree<br />

of paradise to a tree of hell.”<br />

(Eduardo Galeano: Die offenen Adern Lateinamerikas)<br />

Raimund Ditter; Dana Frödert and Alexander Siegmund


Selecting Area of Interest (2)<br />

Select the testing area of the city<br />

Matina (northwest of seaport<br />

Limon)<br />

(X (Pixel): 604; Y(Pixel):291).<br />

(Drag frame over the testing area<br />

and klick „cut“)<br />

Raimund Ditter; Dana Frödert and Alexander Siegmund


Image Enhancement (3)<br />

Look at the histogram of each band<br />

and stretch each of it.<br />

The displayed testing area appears<br />

more clearly and rich in contrast<br />

Raimund Ditter; Dana Frödert and Alexander Siegmund


Band Composite (4)<br />

Analyze the testing area.<br />

Choose different band composites for the selected<br />

satellite image:<br />

a)Which landscape elements are you able to identify?<br />

b)Which elements can not clearly be identified? Discuss<br />

with your classmate!<br />

c)Differ between “natural elements” and “man made<br />

elements”.<br />

Which band combination is suited for highlighting:<br />

- Rain forest and its vitality<br />

- Plantations<br />

- Areas of deforestation<br />

- Surface water bodies<br />

- settlements<br />

Unsupervised Clustering (5)<br />

Generate an „unsupervised clustering“. Change the<br />

number of classes and evaluate the results.<br />

Raimund Ditter; Dana Frödert and Alexander Siegmund


Supervised Classification (6)<br />

Generate a „supervised classification“. Previously<br />

consider the number of classes you will need. Name each<br />

class and give specific colours.<br />

Evaluate the results regarding:<br />

-Quality of classification<br />

- Possible reasons for classification gaps<br />

Raimund Ditter; Dana Frödert and Alexander Siegmund


Land Use Cover - Change Detection 1986 - 2001 (7)<br />

a)Open the Landsat-satellite image<br />

elp015r053_7t20010615.tar.gz<br />

b)Choose the identical testing area and repeat the exercises<br />

2.) to 6.)<br />

c)Compare the generated land use maps from the years 1986<br />

and 2001. In which class did you discover most significant<br />

changes?<br />

d)Explain by using your results the following statement:<br />

„Multinational companies enhance their areas of banana<br />

plantations continously and are transforming the tree of<br />

paradise to a tree of hell.“<br />
