Primary Purpose of Remote Sensing Analysis
Convert multispectral image with thousands or more different measurements
To image with a dozen or fewer different information categories
Management decisions are then made based on the information categories.

MultiSpec: Freeware Tool for Image Data Analysis
• Purpose:- Technology Transfer (Provide ability for other
researchers to try new techniques without having to program the algorithms)
- Teaching (Use in remote sensing courses; significant use now in K-12)
- Research (Grad students use in research)
• Platforms: Macintosh and Windows
• Developed at Purdue University

MultiSpec Image Windows
• Multispectral- Display bands or channels
- Data values control color
• Thematic- Display classification results or other themes
- Data values point to color in table

Issue Examples (continued)
No Compression SID 100SID 20
Original Data Resampled (smoothed)
Users will need to decide the tradeoff.

Issue Examples (continued)
Notice “stitching problem” when combining multiple images.
Very much improved.
IGIC Remote Sensing Workshop: 3/12/2007 Image Processing Tools: Larry Biehl, Purdue
Examples (continued)
4 Meter MultiSpectral Satellite Imagery
Notice the color tone change in the image.
This occurred when combining two images.
