Abstract

Image processing of spacecraft images has been carried on at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory since 1964. The most recent advances in removal of geometric distortion and residual image effects along with various types of mapping projections are covered. The recent applications of image processing to the areas of bio-medicine, forensic sciences, and astronomy are discussed. These treatments are of a tutorial nature and should serve as a guide to more complete discussions on the subjects.
