3 Part 1 Raster Data Short Introduction 3

4 Raster Data What is raster data? geospatial related information are modelled by rectangular cells with homogeneous content all cells do have the same geometry cells are structured in a matrix with specified number of rows and columns 4

5 Raster Data Structure matrix oriented, number of rows and columns fixed raster of cells Geometry, Topology and Thematic Data raster geometry Δx and Δy raster origin x 0 and y 0 row and column index one value per cell -> thematic data 5

6 Raster Data Thematic Data spatial data land use, vegetation type, administrative district spatial physical variables elevation, concentration, temperature image pixel several colour scales and bands satellite images, aerial photos 6

7 Raster Data Data Source - Examples scan of paper based maps and images translation from vector data digital elevation models (remote sensing) orthophotos based on aerial photo satellite images results of numerical simulation models manual thematic maps (e.g. vegetation) 7

8 Raster Data ASCII Format Example Raster 10x10 - ArcGIS ncols 10 nrows 10 xllcorner 500 yllcorner 1000 cellsize 100 nodata_value

9 Example Raster Data Raster 10x10 physical variable (floating point)

10 Example Raster Data Raster 10x10 zonal value (integer)

11 Example Raster Data Raster 10x10: physical variable and zonal values

12 Cell Topology Cell Identification by Indices y-axis: i -> 1, 2, I I = nrows x-axis: j -> 1, 2, J J = ncols c ij cell in row i and column j 1,1 1,2 1,3 1,j 1,J 2,1 2,2 2,3 2,j 2,J i,1 i,2 i,3 i,j I,J I,1 I,2 I,3 I,j I,J 12

13 Cell Topology Cell Neighbourhood to the left : j -> j-1 to the right : j -> j+1 downwards : i -> i+1 upwards : i -> i-1 C i-1,j-1 C i-1,j C i-1,j+1 C i,j-1 C i,j C i,j+1 C i+1,j-1 C i+1,j C i+1,j+1 13

14 Cell Topology Cell Neighbourhood Index Cardinal Relative Bit Code 0,+1 East Right ,+1 SouthEast Down-Right , 0 South Down ,-1 SouthWest Down-Left ,-1 West Left ,-1 NorthWest Up-Left , 0 North Up ,+1 NorthEast Up-Right

15 Cell Geometry Coordinates - Indices basis: cell size Δx and Δy raster origin x 0 and y 0 cell centre of the cell c ij x m = x 0 + (j-1) Δx Δx y m = y 0 + (I-i) Δy Δy cell region x m Δx <= x <= x m Δx y m Δy <= y <= y m Δy 15

16 Cell Geometry Area cell area A = Δx Δy Distance cell distance cell a -> b Manhattan l = i b i a Δy + j b j a Δx Euclidian l = (ib ia) 2 Δy 2 + (j b ja)2δx 2 16

17 Raster Data Data Formats image formats: GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) JPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) PNG (Portable Network Graphics) GeoTiff: extension of TIFF with georeference several proprietary ASCII formats (e.g. ArcGIS) several proprietary binary formats 17

18 Raster Data Important Properties suitable representation of regular spatial data simple geometry and implicit topology transformation of coordinates are complex, irreversible, and might lead to loss of information scaling: upscaling -> loss of information downscaling -> sketchy, coarse structures simple geometrical operations simple local analysis methods (cell, sub matrix) large amount of date, simple data structure 18

19 Part 2 Raster Data General Analysis Methods 19

20 Analysis Methods Application Regions local -> one cell focal -> neighbourhood of a cell zonal -> group of cells with same value incremental -> sequence of cells global -> whole raster 20

21 Analysis Methods Basic Operations arithmetic (e.g. + - * /, sin cos tan, exp log) logic (e.g. OR, XOR, AND) Operands unary operations on one raster binary operations combination of two (or more) raster 21

22 Analysis Methods Example: Arithmetic Operation x - 10 = application example: elevation offset change of units ( C -> Kelvin, Fahrenheit) 22

23 Analysis Methods Example: arithmetic combination = application examples: elevation groundwater level average income * population density 23

24 Analysis Methods Image Processing Methods image: grey/colour scale <-> raster: variable(s) radiometric transformation thresholding slicing - selection blow and shrink methods -> filling gaps (e.g. dike lines, streets) -> filter for outlier cells filter methods 24

25 Analysis Methods Filter Basis: Convolution k+m l+n general: f kk i=k m j=l n f ii λ ii λ ii weighting factor n,m focal size weighting factor determines the impact of the filter on the raster size of focal region determines the spatial dimension of the effect 25

26 Analysis Methods Filter Methods low pass filter (smoothing) example: λ ii = 1 (mean value) nn reduction of extreme value changes high pass filter (sharpening) inverse to low pass filter k+m l+n f kk fff i=k m j=l n f ii λ ii intensification -> border recognition 26

27 Analysis Methods Filter Methods - Examples: total λ ii = 1 min value max value standard derivation: f kk min(f ii ) f kk maa(fff) f kk 1 k+m j=l n l+n i=k m k+m j=l n l+n i=k m k+m l+n f mm 1 i=k m j=l n ii f 2 27

28 Analysis Methods Derivation Gradient of a Spatial Variable f(x,y): gradient g = g 1 g 2 = backward difference: forward difference: central difference: df dd df dy g 1 = (f ij - f ij-1 ) / Δx g 1 = (f ij+1 - f ij ) / Δx g 1 = (f ij+1 - f ij-1 ) / 2Δx same equations for y direction 28

29 Analysis Methods Integration of a Continuous Variable in a Region: integral I = R f(x, y) dddd integral is replaced by the sum of sub integrals in the relevant cells of the region R sub integral of one cell is replaced by the cell data multiplied by the cell area integral I = R f ii ΔxΔy 29
