This paper presents a method for the sequential road feature delineation from digital images. It is based on a feedback loop between extrapolation and refinement steps of a given road centerline point, using in both steps correlation techniques. Firstly, a previously extracted road centerline point is linearly extrapolated, resulting in an approximate position. Secondly, this approximate position is corrected by comparing gray level profiles extracted perpendicularly to the extrapolation direction. This strategy is then repeated to allow the entire road centerline to be extracted or a stop point to be found. In order to initialize the extraction process, the operator needs to supply a starting point plus direction and width. Experimental results obtained from the application of the method to real image data are presented and discussed in this paper.

Traditional methods of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) survey last long and then, they are high cost. Optical remote sensing is an alternative, but it has some limitations in the aquatic environment. The use of echosounder techniques is efficient to detect submerged targets. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate different kinds of interpolation approach applied on SAV sample data collected by echosounder. This study case was performed in a region of Uberaba River - Brazil. The interpolation methods evaluated in this work follow: Nearest Neighbor, Weighted Average, Triangular Irregular Network (TIN) and ordinary kriging. Better results were carried out with kriging interpolation. Thus, it is recommend the use of geostatistics for spatial inference of SAV from sample data surveyed with echosounder techniques. © 2012 IEEE.

Acoustic Doppler current profilers are currently the main option for flow measurement and hydrodynamic monitoring of streams, replacing traditional methods. The spread of such equipment is mainly due to their operational advantages ranging from speed measurement to the greatest detail and amount of information generated about the hydrodynamics of hydrometric sections. As in the use of traditional methods and equipments, the use of acoustic Doppler profilers should be guided by the pursuit of data quality, since these are the basis for project and management of water resources constructions and systems. In this sense, the paper presents an analysis of measurement uncertainties of a hydrometric campaign held in Sapucaí River (Piranguinho-MG), using two different Doppler profilers - a Rio Grande ADCP 1200 kHz and a Qmetrix Qliner. 10 measurements were performed with each equipment consecutively, following the literature quality protocols, and later, a Type A uncertainty analysis (statistical analysis of several independent observations of the input under the same conditions). The measurements of the ADCP and Qliner presented, respectively, standard uncertainties of 0.679% and 0.508% compared with the averages. These results are satisfactory and acceptable when compared to references in the literature, indicating that the use of Doppler profilers is valid for expansion and upgrade of streamflow measurement networks and generation of hydrological data.

The Finite Element Method is a well-known technique, being extensively applied in different areas. Studies using the Finite Element Method (FEM) are targeted to improve cardiac ablation procedures. For such simulations, the finite element meshes should consider the size and histological features of the target structures. However, it is possible to verify that some methods or tools used to generate meshes of human body structures are still limited, due to nondetailed models, nontrivial preprocessing, or mainly limitation in the use condition. In this paper, alternatives are demonstrated to solid modeling and automatic generation of highly refined tetrahedral meshes, with quality compatible with other studies focused on mesh generation. The innovations presented here are strategies to integrate Open Source Software (OSS). The chosen techniques and strategies are presented and discussed, considering cardiac structures as a first application context. © 2013 E. Pavarino et al.

In this paper a photogrammetric method is proposed for refining 3D building roof contours extracted from airborne laser scanning data. It is assumed that laser-derived planar faces of roofs are potentially accurate, while laser-derived building roof contours are not well defined. First, polygons representing building roof contours are extracted from a high-resolution aerial image. In the sequence, straight-line segments delimitating each building roof polygon are projected onto the corresponding laser-derived roof planes by using a new line-based photogrammetric model. Finally, refined 3D building roof contours are reconstructed by connecting every pair of photogrammetrically- projected adjacent straight lines. The obtained results showed that the proposed approach worked properly, meaning that the integration of image data and laser scanning data allows better results to be obtained, when compared to the results generated by using only laser scanning data. © 2013 IEEE.

No estuário de Marapanim-PA, pouco conhecimento existe sobre larvas de camarão, organismos de elevada importância ecológica e alguns de grande valor econômico. Com o objetivo de estudar a composição específica, a densidade e a distribuição espaço-temporal destas larvas no estuário em relação aos períodos do ano (seco, transição e chuvoso), zonas do estuário (1, 2 e 3), locais de coleta (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2 e B3) e perfis (A e B), foram realizadas coletas mensais de agosto/06 a julho/07. As amostras biológicas foram obtidas através de arrastos horizontais em cada local de coleta à aproximadamente 0,5 m da superfície da coluna d’água, com auxílio de uma rede de plâncton cônica (abertura de 0,5 m e malha de 200 μm). Também foram colhidos dados abióticos como, temperatura, salinidade e pH da água. No estuário de Marapanim-PA foram encontradas 4.644 larvas de camarão, compreendendo as infra-ordens Penaeidea e Caridea. Dentre as espécies e/ou famílias encontradas, as mais abundantes foram Alpheus estuariensis (302,59 larvas/m3), Palaemonidae (97,05 larvas/m3) e Sergestidae no estádio de elaphocaris (90,47 larvas/m3) , sendo A. estuariensis a mais frequente (76,39%). O período seco apresentou maior densidade, diversidade e riqueza de larvas de camarão. Na análise de agrupamento da densidade mensal das larvas houve a formação de três grupos, ao nível de similaridade de 65%, nos quais A. estuariensis foi dominante, além de ser a espécie que mais contribuiu para a similaridade dentro destes. A diferença entre agrupamentos se deu principalmente devido à densidade das larvas de Sergestidae, Palaemonidae e Xiphopenaeus kroyeri. Entre os fatores abióticos estudados, a salinidade foi o fator que mais influenciou a distribuição espaço-temporal das larvas de camarão no estuário de Marapanim-PA, região importante para o recrutamento dos estádios iniciais do ciclo de vida de algumas espécies.

Os estudos ambientais necessitam de informações sobre a cobertura e o uso da terra. Este trabalho apresenta a aplicação de dados de sensores remotos orbitais (óticos e de radares) na validação de padrões de uso e cobertura do solo na planície costeira amapaense para fins de mapeamento e reconhecimento da dinâmica natural e antrópica. Esta costa é submetida a uma dinâmica intensa devido à magnitude dos processos costeiros (marés-pororoca), sua localização geográfica, influenciada pelo rio Amazonas e pela Zona de Convergência Intertropical, e processos antrópicos associados à bubalinocultura. A análise foi realizada aplicando-se dados de satélite (JERS-1, RADARSAT-1, Landsat 7 e DEM do SRTM) digitalmente processados em abordagem multisensor, multiescala e multitemporal, correlacionada com dados pretéritos e informações de campo. A análise dos produtos gerados e dados colaterais permitiu distinguir oito padrões de uso e cobertura do solo: florestas de mangue, florestas de várzeas, campos arbustivos, áreas de vegetação campestre, campo antrópico, zona de intermaré, canal estuarino e lagos, além de feições morfológicas lineares associadas a estes padrões. Estas informações são importantes para o mapeamento dos ambientes costeiros e fundamentais para o reconhecimento da dinâmica na região.

The efficient generation of digital surface model (DSM) from optical images has been explored for many years and the results are dependent on the project characteristics (image resolution, size of overlap between images, among others), of the image matching techniques and the computer capabilities for the image processing. The points generated from image matching have a direct impact on the quality of the DSM and, consequently, influence the need for the costly step of edition. This work aims at assessing experimentally a technique for DSM generation by matching of multiple images (two or more) simultaneously using the vertical line locus method (VLL). The experiments were performed with six images of the urban area of Presidente Prudente/SP, with a ground sample distance (GSD) of approximately 7cm. DSMs of a small area with homogeneous texture, repetitive pattern, moving objects including shadows and trees were generated to assess the quality of the developed procedure. This obtained DSM was compared to cloud points acquired by LASER (Light Amplification by Simulated Emission of Radiation) scanning as wells as with a DSM generated by Leica Photogrammetric Suite (LPS) software. The accomplished results showed that the MDS generated by the implemented technique has a geometric quality compatible with the reference models.
