Deeper Analysis, Faster Insight: Enhanced Applications with WorldView-2's Eight Spectral Bands

Hosted by: DigitalGlobe

EVENT DESCRIPTION

View this on-demand Webinar today and hear Dr. Kumar Navulur, DigitalGlobe's Principal Scientist, as he discusses how the WorldView-2's new spectral bands will improve certain remote sensing applications, including feature identification and classification, bathymetry, change detection and more.  

WorldView-2, scheduled to launch on October 6th, 2009, will be the first 8-band multispectral commercial satellite. We believe the WorldView-2 system will bring enhanced agility, capacity, accuracy and spectral diversity to commercial earth imaging. 

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

• See 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. 
  
  
• Discover how the new red edge and yellow edge spectral bands deliver more granular field classifications, improve the understanding of vegetation analysis (health, age, type, species) and provide early warning capabilities to industries that interact with, and depend on, the environment such as pipeline monitoring, environmental mapping and precision agriculture applications.
  
  
• Learn 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.
  
  
• Discover 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.
