3. CONCLUSIONS.
Russian KVR-1000 high resolution space photographs and
SPOT XS digital data have been successfully used for
generating satellite image maps and satellite topoimage maps
up to the scale of 1: 25,000 with acceptable accuracy.
The following different professional software and hardware
were used in this project: System 600 Model 75 and VPSTA
of the International Imaging Systems, ImageStation Imager
ISI-3 of the Intergraph, ERDAS Imagine Map Composer, P-
1700 Photomation Optronics film scanner/writer device and
PS-1 PhotoScan ZEISS/INTERGRAPH, Intergraph
ANATech 3640 large format scanner, STORK, BARCO and
IRIS Ink-Jet printers.
SPOT XS data with pixel size 20 m by 20 m was found good
enough for merging with the high spatial resolution
KVR-1000 panchromatic photograph, SPOT multispectral
data have added false colours to the satellite image maps.
Black and White satellite image maps in the scale 1: 10,000
could be generated using KVR-1000 scanned with aperture
15 pm. However, the accuracy will not meet the standards
for this scale. In this case coordinates of GCP's should be
taken from existing aerial triangulation or measured directly
in field by GPS techniques.
KVR-1000 images have been used successfully by IGiK and
SURFACES Laboratory (Donnay, 1994) for updating topo-
graphic maps up to the scale 1: 25,000.
Colour hard copy image maps of Warsaw and Liege in scale
1: 25,000 were also printed with the use of the offset
technique.
These image maps were also very beneficial to the Warsaw
area in its urban planning and monitoring change detection
activities.
