© ISO 2001 All rights reserved 50  Sensor geometry model adjustment service. Service that adjusts sensor geometry models to improve the match of the image with other images andor known ground positions.  Image geometry model conversion service. Service that converts sensor geometry models into a different but equivalent sensor geometry model.  Image subsetting service. Service that extracts data from an image in a continuous spatial region either by geographic location or by grid coordinates.  Image sampling service. Service that extracts data from an image using a consistent sampling scheme either by geographic location or by grid coordinates.  Image tiling change service. Service that changes the tiling of geographic image.

9.3.4.2 Geographic imagery processing services – thematic

The following is a non-exhaustive listing of geographic processing services – thematic.  Image classification service. Service to classify regions of geographic image based on thematic attributes. Classification of images subdivides a coverage into regions based on attribute values.  Image subsetting service. Service that extracts image elements, e.g., from a larger set based on thematic characteristics.  Geographic information extraction services. Services supporting the extraction of feature and terrain information from remotely sensed and scanned images.  Image processing service. Service to change the range values of an image using a mathematical function. Example functions include: convolution, data compression, feature extraction, frequency filters, geometric operations, non-linear filters, and spatial filters.  Image modification servicesOGC doc. 00-115  Automated image matching servicesOGC doc. 00-115  Reduced resolution generation service. Service that reduces the resolution of an image.  Image Manipulation Services. Services for manipulating data values in images: changing colour and contrast values, applying various filters, manipulating image resolution, noise removal, striping, systematic-radiometric corrections, atmospheric attenuation, changes in scene illumination, etc.  Image understanding services. Services that provide automated image change detection, registered image differencing, significance-of-difference analysis and display, and area-based and model-based differencing.  Image interpretation service. Inferring symbolic scene descriptions from image data.  Image synthesis services. Services for creating or transforming images using computer-based spatial models, perspective transformations, and manipulations of image characteristics to improve visibility, sharpen resolution, andor reduce the effects of cloud cover or haze. © ISO 2001 All rights reserved 51  Multi-band image manipulation. Services that modify an image using the multiple bands of the image. Examples include: ratioing; principal components transformation, Intensity-Hue-Saturation colour space transformation, de- correlation-stretching.  Object detection service. Service to detect real-world objects in an image.
