    Taking the Taihu Lake Rim as a case,this paper analyses the progress of land use change and the driving mechanism from 1996 to 2007. Supported with mass data,it analyses the trend,the comentropy,and the equilibrium of regional land use change.Since 1996,the adjustment of land use structures in Taihu Lake Rim has been slowed down at a steady rate.From 2004,the land use structures of this area are developing reasonably and smoothly.It demonstrates that the land use change is mainly affected by the economic development,the agriculture intensification,the progress of urbanization,the increase of population and policies.

    The advantage of P2P structure is fast at discovering and getting service.And the advantage of GeoOntology Repository is helpful to make semantic reasoning and to solve the conflict of geographical semantics.So,in order to alleviate "single point of failure" of central system based on SOA,this paper combines semantics P2P with SOA to publish distributed web services instead of using UDDI of SOA to central publishing service.By creating the geographical ontology and introducing geographical semantics P2P into SOA,this paper extends the service bus of SOA into geographical service bus(GSB).The service discovery of GSB is based on semantic P2P,and the new service discovery mechanism is implemented in GSB.All these details are encapsulated in GSB,so it is transparent for each service attached to GSB.The communication way among services is the same as the way using SOA.This way can let the legacy system upgrade smoothly.So our prototype not only holds the advantages of SOA on interoperability and transparent use of services under distributed heterogeneous geographical information sharing systems but also utilizes semantics P2P to complete the auto discovery task.Our method also provides an innovative idea for large scale sharing geographial data and services of science data sharing platform.

    Waterfront resource is an important component of land resource in China,and resource evaluation is the major work in waterfront resource studies.In China,the studies began at the end of the 1980s and focused mainly on the lower and middle reaches of the Yangtze River.In those methods,quantitative analysis and GIS tools have been applied.It is impractical to analyze the waterfront resource only according to the natural conditions and economic conditions.In order to gain both socio-economic and ecological benefits,in terms of the characteristic of Nanjing section of the Yangtze River,the factor index in this study is established including waterfront depth,stability of waterfront,water-behind land width,water resources protection areas and scenic resort and historic sites.In accord,the steps of resource evaluation are to cut cells,to evaluate each factor,and to grade waterfront.Applying GIS and ArcGIS Engine exploring tools,this paper implements the integrative evaluation along the Yangtze River in Nanjing,on the basis of which,index of individual evaluation is evaluated and reasonable division of waterfront cells.The evaluation results show that waterfront resource is rich,of which the fine parts take up around half of the overall length;furthermore,the fine parts are very concentrated which are fit to utilization.All the jobs can provide some consultation for scientific and reasonable utilization and exploitation of waterfront resource of the Yangtze River in Nanjing.

    A near-lossless,adaptive watermarking algorithm based on DCT is presented to protect DEM from theft and illegal reproduction.The contribution of this work is twofold: ①In order to improve robustness,the methodology is designed to embed a watermark in terrain lines.②As for the watermark embedding strength,it is decided theoretically in DCT domain by jointing the elevation precision of DEM and Watson perceptual model.And since different precision requirements are given to different relief forms,the watermark embedding strength is adaptive to relief forms.The experiments show satisfying results are not only in watermark transparency,but also in near-lossless of DEM precision and contour derived from watermarked DEM.In addition,this algorithm shows robustness towards JPEG compression,JPEG2000 compression and cropping attacks.

    Based on mathematical morphology methods,two main algorithms were developed,such as multi-weighted combination filter algorithm with omnidirection structure elements and edge detection algorithm with multi-scale omnidirectional structure elements.By tracing the image edge,both raster and vector data objects were generated,and geometrical features extracting model was built.Results suggest that: the purposed algorithms can successfully process remote sensing images with high-spatial-resolution.The former suppresses noise and preserves details effectively;the latter resolves the contradictions between noise suppression and extraction of fine edge excellently,and anti-noise performance is strong.The extracted geometrical features information can be used in object recognition and classification of remote sensing image with its spectrums,texture,and statistics features.The extracted information can be used in the fields of GIS,photographic surveying,computer vision and the industries of meteorology,agriculture and forest,ocean,hydropower,land resources,and environmental protection.

    This paper analyzes and discusses the fused image which is the result of the fusion of ENVISAT ASAR and CBERS-02 CCD image data.Comparison of the three techniques of IHS transform fusion,principal components analysis fusion and wavelet transform fusion applied suggested that resolution merge of IHS transform method can get much better result,according to the visual interpretation of the resultant image.However,spatial resolution was attenuated in order to reduce the effect of speckle from the ASAR image.For the fusion image,which contains backscattering behavior from both VV polarization and HH polarization,and contains spectral information from the optical CCD data,it improves visual interpretation of the image and can be used for crop mapping with high mapping accuracy in the case discussed in this paper.

    As high-resolution remote sensing satellites come into being,it is hard to get good fusion results using original image fusion techniques.For example,the Principal Component Analysis(PCA) image fusion method is sensitive to the noise and limited to the fusion region.The traditional wavelet transformation fusion also causes spectrum information distortion to some extent,considering the effects of noise to the fusion image.Therefore,a′ Trous wavelet and PCA transform integrated remote sensing fusion method is studied where Quickbird multi-spectral image and panchromatic image are used in this article.The result demonstrated that it is better than other fusion methods by visual and quantitative analysis.

    In this paper,Enhanced Vegetation Index(EVI) and MODIS Land Surface Temperature(Ts) product data MOD11L2 were used to construct the Ts-EVI space,from which the Temperature Vegetation Drought Index(TVDI) was obtained as drought index to monitor drought in Sanhuajian area of the Yellow River on Mar.8th,Apr 2 nd.,Apr.13th and Jun.12th in 2002.Data from weather station and apparent thermal inertia(ATI) were also obtained to evaluate TVDI.A relationship(R2=0.734 5) was also obtained between TVDI and ATI.Land-use type and elevation were also studied.The results indicated that both of them were important influencing factors,different land use types had different distributions of TVDI,and the relationship between the height above 250m and TVDI was obvious.It was feasible to monitor the drought dynamic variations in semiarid area with complex terrain by using TVDI.
