    Based on analyzing the spectral characteristics of the reduced alteration sandstone of gas and oil in Bashibulake uranium ore district,and the difference in illustrating the spectral feature between ASTER and ETM+ data,two kinds of technologic ideas were proposed to study the remote sensing reduced alteration information directly and indirectly.Following the two ideas,different effects in using ASTER and ETM data were compared respectively.Studies showed that both ASTER and ETM had equal and good effect in extracting the ferric information to reflect the law of reduced alteration of oil and gas indirectly,but in aspect of extracting the reduced alteration information,ASTER data showed obviously better effect than ETM+.Those enhanced reduced alteration information was of great significance in addressing the alteration law in Cretaceous system and uranium prospecting in the outer parts of Bashibulake uranium ore district.

    There are sometimes some uneven thin cloud-fog effects in the remote sensing images from optical remote sensors,especially in cloudy and rainy areas.A new method based on adaptive filtering and gray-scale transformation was proposed to remove the cloud-fog cover of the high-resolution remote sensing images in this paper.This comprehensive technology program was applied to process the SPOT5 image with heavy thin cloud-fog cover acquired from Zhuhai,China.And to test its superiority,a comparative experiment with two other available methods named homomorphism filter and an approach based on Laplacian enhancement and histogram transformation was carried on.Several objective indicators,such as PSNR(Peak Signal-to Noise Ratio),average absolute deviation and spectral correlation coefficient(proposed by Li Yuechen[1]),were used to evaluate the resulting images.Besides,to verify the general reliability of the framework proposed,more image data from different sensors,such as TM and CMB satellite,in the cloudy and rainy areas were selected for the corresponding experiment.The results indicate that the experimental results for different data source are consistent,which show that the proposed integrated methods can remove the thin cloud-fog cover effectively and maintain the true spectral features of the original image to a large extent.Furthermore,as a result of the application of different parameters of filtering and gray-scale transformation for different spectral band,the spatial details and true spectral information are remained as more as possible.

    Angulinao Lake is located in Zhangbei County,Hebei Province.It is the largest lake formed by continental rivers in Haihe basin.The lake covered up to 18000 hm2 when it was the largest.And it was getting completely dry in recent years.Based on MSS\TM\ETM\CBERS-1\CBERS-2 remote sensing data and GIS Technology;this paper studied the evolution of the water level of Angulinao Lake from 1975 to 2007.The results showed that the surface area of Angulinao Lake changed greatly,while the upriver reserviors changed little.The surface area of the lake is about 4300hm2 in 1975,changed to about 5100hm2 in 2000,and then reduced the scope every year.These changes corresponded well to the climate changes in northern China and to the changes of upriver discharge capacity during the same period.Dry climate and the weak period of the upriver discharge capacity responds to the period of small surface area;while damp climate and the strong period of the upriver discharge capacity corresponds to large surface area.The study also showed that the Eco-environment has degraded in recent years.The salinized area had increased about 170km2 from 1977 to 1987,and increased about 120km2 from 1987 to 2007.These changes corresponded well to the surface area changes of Angulinao Lake.The causes resulting in drying up of the Angulinao Lake have been studied.The geological factors,such as faults,strata,earthquake,have no influences on it.The main reasons are climate change and human's activities,such as the excessive interception of upriver reserviors and over extraction for groundwater.Dry climate and lower upriver discharge capacity are the killers of the Angulinao Lake.To keep balance between economic development and environmental protection,there is a long way to go.

    High Accuracy Surface Modelling(HASM)constructed on the base of fundamental theory of surfaces is more accurate than the classical methods for surface modelling.However,the traditional solving method for HASM is to employ an invariable resolution to simulate the whole computational domain,which causes a huge computation cost and an enormous amount of data.In general,under the same amount of sampling points,the accuracy of HASM depends on mesh spacing.The finer the finite-difference mesh,the more accurate the solution is.Unfortunately,due to limitations in computational resources,it is often impossible to use a single uniform mesh to solve a given problem to the desired accuracy.On the other hand,it is often the case that the finest resolution is only required in regions which only make up a small fraction of the computational domain.Computing an unnecessarily fine solution outside these regions represents a waste of computational resources.Adaptive mesh refinement method can select the simulation resolution adaptively with the terrain complexity or accuracy requirement,which places more grid points in regions where the terrain is complex,while using fewer grid points in flat regions.Based on the adaptive mesh refinement theory,we constructed the adaptive algorithm of HASM.Dongzhi tableland was selected for validating the effectiveness of HASM.The results show that the adaptive algorithm of HASM reduces much computation cost and data volume under the same accuracy of traditional HASM.

    DEM can be constructed from many kinds of data sources among which traditional contour lines from manual interpretation of landforms is still a nontrivial ones.This paper proposed a new method to construct DEM from contour lines based on the HASM(High Accuracy Surface Modelling) which used to handling discrete points only.Firstly,a regular grid points' are set up,on which each elevation will be predicted using the new method,each grid point represents the square grid area surrounding itself.Secondly,contour lines are discretize according to several rules: a) if a grid is traversed by a contour line,then the distance from the center point of the grid to the contour line will be computed,and if the distance is less than or equal to one-fourth of the side length of the square grids,this grid will be set with values of the contour line's height;otherwise,this grid will be not set with values;b) if four connected grid points whose grids were traversed by a contour line,and their distances to the contour line are greater than one-fourth of the side length,then the last grid point will be set with values of the contour line's height.Numerical surface based on Gaussian synthesis is used as an example,setting up grid points with extent of x,y∈,75×75,and contour lines are derived from true numerical results in ArcGIS 9.0.Then these methods,such as Thin Plate Spline(TPS),TIN(Triangular Irregular Network) and HASM are used to construct DEM from the derived contour lines.Resulting DEMs are used to derive contour lines,which shows that contours from HASM are of most fidelity to the original contours,then the TPS and TIN.There is only one artifact contour line for HASM method,while two contour lines are missed on peaks and a contour missed on the saddle for TPS,altering the basic shape of the terrain.TIN has preserved the basic shape of the terrain,but it has produced zigzag contour lines and even illogical discontinuous contour lines.The result and method proposed in this paper is useful for further studies on HASM method and related contour line researches,such as contour-based terrain analysis.

    Existing business software of Geographic Information System(GIS) generally could not take the function as a Geostatiatical Analyst.Even if some of them can do this,it is just at the level of simple variogram calculation and basic variogram nesting method,which hardly fit the need of spatial analysis for spatial variance quantitative analysis,and from the perspective of industry application,it also can't meet the requirement on analysis precision.Taking the biggest GIS technology providing company-ESRI as an example,its product-ArcGIS have a tool in its Toolbox called Geostatiatical Analyst Tool(GAT),but it is weak at the link of interaction between user and computer.So it is inevitablly troublesome that variogram with outlier can't be nested appropriately.And this tool can only handle 2D data,and can do nothing for 3D data.This paper analyzes the need of spatial analysis in 3D data set and common nest methods,including simple variogram nesting method,equivalent elliptic variogram nesting method and so on,and compares the difference and applicability of them.In focusing on the equivalent elliptic variogram nesting method,it is found that by some modification,equivalent elliptic variogram nesting method can be used in 3D environment,and can output a reasonable result.After that,this paper studies the cross validation in order to test whether the result is accurate enough,and discuss the Kriging variance for testing the result of equivalent elliptic variogram nesting method.Finally,with some drilling data and mineralization information,this paper calculates the variogram of X-axis,Y-axis and Z-axis,and with adapted equivalent elliptic variogram nesting method,have the result.After Kriging interpolating and cross validation,with kriging variance,there come to a conclusion that the result from equivalent elliptic variogram nesting method is acceptable.

    The Ministry of Land and Resources has initiated national remote sensing dynamic monitoring project for land use.Through analysis of satellite images of different periods,land use change information can be extracted and analyzed.This research work is mainly based on the operator experience engaged in the project in recent years.Many image fusion methods were developed in recent years accompanied by the development of multi-sensor,multi-temporal and multi-spectral remote sensing technologies.These fusion methods are widely used.However,the traditional image fusion is to increase the image spatial resolution and multi-spectral resolution.This paper is to merge different bands in the same image,attempting to make full use of multi-spectral and higher spatial resolution characteristic of ASTER image,even to mine their potential which can be used in land use and land cover changes.This paper may provide scientific reference for cosmically monitoring land use and land cover change.In order to highlight the edges of images,the line or the areas where a great change has in brightness,an ASTER image was used to extract urban vegetation information of the research area by color normalized and HSV sharpening methods.A comparison was made between the two classified images which were processed by parallelepiped method.Urban green spaces were paid more attention by compared tries.The analysis was made to explore the effects of the two methods based on ASTER images,in order to find a better access to spatial information of urban green spaces by remote images and provide basic data for the assessment in city ecological and the construction of landscape ecology.The result shows that color normalized method has a better performance in the distribution of urban green space,which was good at monitoring dynamically the distribution of urban green space.The structure and the adjacent of urban green spaces were clearly indicated by the fused images.The differences between urban green spaces and other land use types were amplified by the effect of region amplification,different types of edges and manual interpretation,which could highlight the distribution,structure and ecological characteristics of urban green spaces.
