Abstract

The possibility of computer  rise  of information value of  images of objects of the urban landscape  taken  with  limited resolution cameras  or  in  sub-optimal shooting conditions  is considered.  A  high-frequency digital filtering algorithm  with  a windowing is used. The  selection  of the most appropriate window for Google Maps  images was performed. It was established that  the  classical Gaussian window  is  the optimal one. The developed method of treatment of not enough clear satellite images allows  controlling  the relative level of higher harmonics in the spectrum of the image, which determines  the quality of visualization of small picture elements. Simplicity and ease of working with the program distinguishes it from similar packages of universal engineering purposes. Therefore, this development may be recommended for use in geographic information systems, as well as in the educational process in the departments  of universities of proper profile. In particular,  this may be  the creation of virtual laboratory models for student practical training. Keywords:  satellite image, definition,  digital filtering, windowing, Gaussian window.
