Abstract

In this study ten commercial available fusion techniques and more especially the Ehlers, Gram-Schmidt, High Pass Filter, Local Mean Matching (LMM), Local Mean and Variance Matching (LMVM), Modified IHS (ModIHS), Pansharp, PCA, HCS (Hyperspherical Color Space) and Wavelet were used for the fusion of Geoeye panchromatic and multispectral data. The panchromatic data have a spatial resolution of 0.5m while the multispectral data have a spatial resolution of 2.0m. The optical result, the statistical parameters and different quality indexes such as ERGAS, Q, entropy were examined and the results are presented. The broader area of Pendeli mountain near to the city of Athens Greece and more especially two sub areas with different characteristics were chosen for the comparison. The first sub area is located at the edge of the urban fabric and combines at the same time the characteristics of an urban and a rural area. The second sub area comprises a large open quarry and it is suitable to examine which fused product is more suitable for mine monitoring.
