The standard FAO classification scheme provides a standardized system of classification that can be used to analyze spatial and temporal land cover variability in the study area. This approach also has the advantage of facilitating the integration of Sinai land cover mapping products to be included with the regional and global land cover datasets. The total study area is 7450 km2 (1,773,842) feddans. The landscape classification was performed on SPOT4 data acquired in 2011 using combined multi-spectral bands of 20 meter spatial resolution. Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to edit the classification result in order to reach the maximum possible accuracy. GIS was also used to include all necessary information. The identified vegetative land cover classes of the study area are irrigated herbaceous crops, irrigated tree crops and rain fed tree crops. The non-vegetated land covers in the study area include: bare rock, bare soil, bare soil stony, bare soil very stony, bare soil salt crusts, loose and shifting sands and sand dunes. The water bodies were classified as artificial perennial water bodies (fish ponds and irrigated canals) and natural perennial water bodies as lakes (standing) and rivers (flowing). Artificial surfaces in the study area include linear and non-linear. The produced maps and the statistics of the different land covers are included in the following sub-sections.展开更多

Spectral profile of diorite exhibits very distinguished absorption features around 2.20 μm and 2.35 μm wavelength regions. These absorption features lead to lowering the band ratio values within the band-7 wavelength region. Diorite intrusions appear to have grey and dark grey image signatures on 7/3 and 7/2 band ratio images respectively. On the false color composite ratio image (7/3:R;7/2:G and 5/2:B), diorite, marble, gossan and volcanics have very dark brown, dark blue, white and yellowish brown image signatures respectively. Image fusion between previously mentioned FCC ratio image and high spatial resolution (5 meters) SPOT-5 panchromatic image is carried out by using brovey and HSV transformation methods. Visual and statistical assessment methods prove that HSV fused image yields best image interpretability results rather than brovey image. It improves the spatial resolution of the original FCC ratios image with acceptable spectral preservation.展开更多

The electrical parameters (power supply voltage, welding current, SCR firing angle and current flow angle) of welding process can reflect the quality of joint and the status of welding equipment, many data acquisition devices designed to collect those parameters have been discussed in many papers, but there is such a deficiency that one computer can only link with an acquisition device. At automobile assembly field, there are hundreds of welding machines working at the same time, so the existing device can not be satisfied with manufacturing demand. To solve the problem, the double-MCU data acquisition device based on Ethernet is discussed in this paper, the data acquisition devices can altogether link with a computer using a HUB, the effective value or the instantaneous value of electrical parameters can be transmitted to the computer over UDP/IP. All the data are read through Ethernet port of a computer using a LabView application, which can process, store and present all data to the user. Finally the experiments prove that the designed Ethernet-based data acquisition system is suitable for practical application.展开更多
