    Your videos are incredibly helpful. I'm learning a lot of the tools as a landscape architecture student and you explain things so clearly so that you don't leave us behind when we run into obstacles. I was able to use this video to generate a topo map for one of my presentations. Thank you and keep up the great work!

    Excellent! This has been a longstanding problem for me - getting contour lines in foreign countries to pursue my rail foamer plotting of new and upgraded passenger rail lines worldwide! Google Earth's elevations in the status bar are great but you're blind without contour lines to show the shape of things. I am very excited about this. Thanks so Much!

      @@geodeltalabs Oh yes, I actually slowed it down at one point while trying to coordinate my actions with the video. I've now got it so I can run through the process in QGIS "fairly reliably" by rote.
      I'm using 75m intervals (I know never to interact with GE while it's trying to load - it can load anything if you just leave it alone) and with that and the status bar figures it will make for increased avoidance of miscalculations. But I wonder: normally I calculate in feet in GE being in the US - because the result is 3.28084 x more accurate (ha, ha) but the starling thing is that the status bar figures corroborate VERY precisely with the old USGS Togoraphical Maps. Now if the tightest resolution of the (what is it?) "Year 2000 Satellite Survey" is 30m, then how is it Google Earth has such accurate figures in the status bar? I mean once I found a place it was MORE accurate than the USGS Topo Map - proven with Street View. (I expect surveyors sometimes got tired of being sick+tired back then, maybe they were doing some early experimenting with void filling.)
      It may be the best solution for my purposes would be from your video where you extend a path at length in approx grid to get the GE figures, and create a file using ArcGIS. But haven't gone through even a quarter of your videos on the subject. Like I say yesterday's results are very encouraging, because lacking in coding knowledge I was pretty much stuck in countries outside the US as far as getting a concept of the lay of the land, for the past 10 years. Putting the exaggeration at 3.0 and viewing skewed and close really doesn't make for a feeling of confidence in one's proposed rail alignments.

      Sir, Could you please make a session for the NDBI analysis using satellite image. Actually, want to know how we need to categorize the value that we gain from -1 to +1. There are many tutorial for the NDVI. But, I couldn't find the any tutorial about how to categorize the NDBI values ( like buildup, water bodies and vegetation)
      Or else please suggest anyway to find the buildup area distribution for any place.
      sir, It will really helpful for us
      I don't know whether it correct to ask here.

    • @geodeltalabs
      @geodeltalabs  3 роки тому +1

      Hi, as the definition of the NDVI suggests, it's a measurement how well (or otherwise) a certain element in nature reflects the near-infrared light and absorbs the red light (NDVI = [NIR-RED]/[NIR+RED]). Healthy vegetation which happens to contain more chlorophyll content, tends to reflect more NIR and absorb more red light, making the numerator of the above equation go high, indicating the presence of healthy vegetation.
      Therefore, I would suggest that for general classifications of things like buildings , roads, urban areas etc, you may use a supervised classification method, and use NDVI only with an understanding on what it was meant for.
      Hope this clears things up at least to some level :)

    • @geodeltalabs
      @geodeltalabs  2 роки тому

      Hello there, are you referring to combining multiple tiles of SRTM data into one continuous raster covering the entire UK? or blending elevation data from different sources? The former would be much easier. Once you download the tiles, use 'Mosaic to New Raster' tool in ArcMap to combine the tiles to one raster, or 'Merge' tool if you are using QGIS.
