DigitalGlobe Webinar to Discuss the Impact of WorldView-2’s Spectral Bands on Remote Sensing Applications | |
Longmont, Colo., July 27, 2009 – DigitalGlobe (NYSE: DGI), a leading global provider of commercial high-resolution earth imagery products and services, will host a webinar, “Deeper Analysis, Faster Insight: Enhanced Applications with WorldView-2’s New Spectral Bands,” featuring the company’s Principal Scientist, Dr. Kumar Navulur, on Wednesday, July 29th, at 11:00am and 7:00pm (MDT). § How the four additional spectral bands (coastal blue, yellow edge, red edge, and near infrared 2) enable broader ranges of classifications, enhanced vegetation and coastal analysis, the extraction of more features and the identification and tracking of coastal changes and infractions. § How the new red edge (the first in the commercial industry) and yellow edge spectral bands deliver more granular field classifications, improve the understanding of vegetation analysis and provide early warning capabilities to industries that interact with, and depend on, the environment. § How the new coastal blue spectral band will enhance bathymetry studies for sea floors, coastal plains and waterways, discriminate features of the shallow ocean floor more accurately and increase the scope of coastal remote sensing applications--improving the safety of marine navigation and providing much needed insight into the ever changing marine environment. § How the WorldView-2 based portals and navigation devices will see the world in the truest natural state--bringing better definition and clarity to the user's visual reality, and allow mapping experts to use those bands to pinpoint more points of interest and create more diverse, interesting navigation applications.
