ABSTRACT

To realize the dynamic monitoring of urban planning, an automated system for urban planning monitoring was proposed based on satellite remote sensing data, with a view to monitoring new land-use changes. A combination of B/S architecture and C/S architecture was adopted to build the system. In data acquisition module, WorldView-2, a commercial Earth observation satellite, was used to acquire remote sensing data for urban planning. The high-speed serial data among them was first adapted into computer-processable data and was then stored in planning database, fundamental geographic information database and business database. Data processing modules pre-process the remote sensing data in various databases through radiation calibration and atmospheric correction, and extract various features of urban planning such as roads and land use. Those features were then transmitted to release modules through the spatial database engine and web server of a RF module, with S3C2410X as the processor, to realize automated monitoring and display the results. Experiments verified that the system is able to accurately monitor urban planning at different stages and new land-use change.
