APPLICATION OF BINARY DIVISION ALGORITHM FOR IMAGE ANALYSIS AND CHANGE DETECTION TO IDENTIFY THE HOTSPOTS IN MODIS IMAGES

Abstract

fusing In this paper, an approach based on Binary Division Algorithm, to detect the Hotspots using Multi-resolution fusion of band 1, band 2, band 31 and band 32 of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), NASA Satellite, for the Jharia (India) Region with the aid of image analysis and change detection technique has been proposed. The management of mine fires in coal mining region is of much concern in India. Mine fires apart from economic aspects; give rise to devastating environmental effects. Most of th
