GRB

Part of database structure, location within table (column) for storage of attribute to a feature.

Branch of knowledge taught and researched.

The angular size of the cone in space which the sensor can detect.

Reference data.

Perception of importance between objects (figure) to background (ground).

Organization of files, can be refered as file format.

DEM without depression/sinks.

Instrument to block a certain type of light(e.g. blue light) and let other light(e.g. infrared light) pass through to the camera.

To express the number of times by which an exposure should be increased to compensate for radiation absorption for a provided filter.

Method of modelling for electromagnetic-based problems similar to FDTD, based on the discritization of computational space into 2D squares or 3D cubes.

Modelling technique for signal processing of electormagnetic wave propagation problems.

Wireframe diagram depicting surfaces.

Vessel position at a particular instance.

Where ambiguity parameters are fixed at integer values, with positioning accuracies at centimeter level (integer value levels).

Technique to mark location/station.

Database without structure or structural relationships, where all data are stored within a single file.

Measure of compression of circle/sphere along a diameter to form an ellipse/ellipsoid.

The aircraft's flight path, to produce a succession of overlapping photo of complete coverage of the area.

For better interpretation and ideal aerial photography, flight planning need to take some parameters into consideration,liek the focal length of the camera, the film format size, the photo scale, the coverage area, the average elevation,the desired overlapping and teh gournd speed of the aircraft.

Forward-Looking Infrared System

A means for horizontal fixing, where parallel lines run perpendicular from baseline, with known coordinates and heights on end points, on the coast.

Where ambiguity parameters could not be fixed at integer values, with positioning accuracies are at decimeter or submeter level.

Floating mark is used to conduct quantitative measurements on stereo photographs. To shift the relative positions of the half marks,the left mark and the right mark, along the flight line until they visually fuse together and form a single mark which ""float"" in teh stereomodel.

Where there are no fixed number of digits before or after decimal point.

Raster containing cells of continuous values.

Plants and animals.

Raster composed of cells with values specifying the number of cell that flows into it.

Process of managing rate of data transmission.

Movement/transportation of liquid.

Raster showing direction of water flow between cells.

Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave

Full Operational Capability

The distance from a lens to its focus.

A point of convergence of light rays

Used to ensure integrity of data and for table joining, they are attributes that can uniquely identify an entry/record in the table, it may be referred to Primary Key in the join table.

Final observed height measurement on the level run in a single setup.

Temporary moldings/structures for materials to be set into (e.g. pouring of concrete).

Forward-looking infrared system, used to votain oblique views of the landscape in front of an aircraft with the similar principles of an across-track line scanning system.

An expression of waveform as a series of sinusoidal functions.

A two-dimensional scatter plot resulting from Fourier transform.

Field of View

Occurs at the receiver at the first instant of the lock-on, when it starts tracking the incoming phase from the satellite.

Portion of RAM containing bitmap for the display of image so that the image can be displayed on screen from memory.

Adjustment on overall geometry of network, to test for quality of network and identify blunders.

Loss of power in radio waves due to geometric spreading.

Wave Property. Measured in Hertz (Hz), it measures how many cycles are completed within one second.

A smooth curve indicates the limiting case of a histogram computed for a frequency distribution of a continuous distribution when the number of data points becomes very large.

Channel access technique using multiple access protocols, common for satellite communication.

Component frequency of signal, the integer multiple of the fundamental frequency.

A Radar system where radio signals are modulated to adjust bandwidth and range resolution.
