Produce Satellite Images Corrected with High Accuracy and Low Cost for the Purpose of Producing a Digital Map for the New Site of the University of Mustansiriya

Abstract

The surveying maps especially (cadastral maps and topographical maps) are considered the most important types of maps in cities, because its importance lies in the design, modernization and development of urban planning for the city because it contains all the elements and natural landmarks that found in the region, so the surveying map have great importance for Decision-maker, designers and researchers, scholars and all maps users.As a result of urban development, investment and construction in Iraq, emerged the need to produce digital maps instead of old paper maps that are still used in some government institutions as yet, so as to keep up with technical progress and the technological revolution taking place in most progressing countries of the world, the great development of the software and computer hardware removed a lot of obstacles in the production of maps which allowed the possibility of linking data and information with its geographical positions via coordinates, also allowed the possibilities of measurement , analysis and interpretation from aerial photographs and the information that sent from satellites ,and extraction the data and information to create maps, in order to save effort , time and money.Therefore, this research represent a method of producing satellite image with corrected coordinates and high-resolution for the purpose of preparation surveying map that contain all the terrain elements and ......
