     Orthorectification differs from rectification because
    • A.

      orthorectification is performed on aerial photographs and rectification is performed on satellite images.

    • C. 

      rectification can only be performed using Image Analysis extension program.

    • D. 

      orthorectification uses elevation data to account for the natural variation in the Earth’s surface.

      cameras are not typical geographical data collection devices.

    • B. 

      cameras or sensors have a certain amount of error or discrepancy related to them.

     When orthorectifying an image, it is best to select control points that are not clustered together because
    • A. 

      the portion of the image where the control points are located would be closely aligned and the rest of the image would be highly distorted.

    • B. 

      this would cause a runtime error and the program would shut down and cause you to lose all associated data.

    • C. 

      the portion of the image where the control points are located would be highly distorted and the rest of the image would align properly.

    • D. 

      the portion of the elevation data for the rest of the image would be reprojected based on the image projection causing problems for future analysis.

  • 21. 
     When orthorectifying an image with a geographic extent that extends beyond one quarter quadrangle of area, you may need to mosaic the digital elevation models (DEMs) to use for the analysis because
    • A. 

      non-mosaicked data cannot be used for this analysis.

    • B. 

      the coordinate system for the DEM must be the same as the coordinate system of the image.

    • C. 

      the coordinate system for the DEM must differ from the coordinate system of the image.

    • D. 

      the geographic extent of the elevation data must be at least that of the study area.

  • 22. 
     Specifying a larger seed radius in Seed Tool Properties typically causes a larger polygon to be drawn because
    • A. 

      the seed radius specifies the number of pixels that can be used to establish the range of pixel values that will be used to draw the polygon.

    • B. 

      the seed radius specifies the size of the polygon to the drawn.

    • C. 

      the seed radius specifies whether you will click a single polygon or draw a rectangle to establish the pixel value range.

    • D. 

      smaller seed radiuses may cause longer analysis processing times

  • 23. 
     Clicking a single pixel rather than dragging a box when using the Seed Tool typically causes a smaller polygon to be drawn because
    • A. 

      the seed radius would automatically become smaller.

    • B. 

      the seed radius would automatically become larger.

    • C. 

      the number of pixels used to build the pixel value range would be smaller.

    • D. 

      smaller polygons can cause longer analysis processing times.

  • 24. 
    A resolution merge can greatly enhance an image because 
    • A. 

      it can increase the resolution of a low-resolution image
