Remote Sensing of Urban/Suburban Infrastructure and Socio‐Economic Attributes

Temporal and spatial resolution requirements for extracting urban/suburban infrastructure and socio-economic attributes from remote sen.& data are presented. The goal is to relate the user information requirements with the current and proposed remote sensing systems to determine if there are substantive gaps in capability. Several remote sensing systems currently provide some of the desired urban/suburban infrastructure and socio-economic information when the required spatial resolution is poorer than 4 by 4 m and the temporal resolution is between 1 and 55 days (e.g., Landsat MSS and Thematic Mapper, SPOTI-4, Russian TK-350, RADARSAT, Indian IRS-ICD, NOAA AVHRR, GOES, Meteosat). Current high spatial resolution sensor systems such as the Russian SPIN-2 KVR-1000 (2- by 2-m panchromatic; when in orbit) and proposed sensor systems (EOSAT Space Imaging IKONOS 1- by 1-m panchromatic; Earth Watch Quickbird 0.82 by 0.82 m; Orbview-3 1 by I m) may provide additional capability. Large-scale metric aerial photography or digital camera imagery with spatial resolutions ranging from I 0.25 to 1 m will still be required to satisfy several important urban/suburban information requirements.
