The rapid growth of remote sensing technology has a great advantage in producing high resolution images which are huge in data volume. Due to the huge volume it is tedious to store and transmit the data. In order to overcome this, a good compression algorithm should be used to compress the data before storing are transmitting. In this paper we have chosen seven different very high resolution satellite images namely Worldview 3, Worldview 2, GeoEye-1, Worldview 1, Pleiades, Quick Bird and IKONOS they are compressed using three different compression methods JPEG, SPIHT and JPEG2000. The Mean square Error, Signal to noise Ratio and Peak Signal to Noise Ratio are calculated to evaluate the quality of the compression methods in very high resolution satellite images.

Measuring the quality of image is very complex and hard process since the opinion of the humans are affected by physical and psychological parameters. So many techniques are invented and proposed for image quality analysis but none of the methods suits best for it. Assessment of image quality plays an important role in image processing. In this paper we present the experimental results by comparing the quality of different satellite images (ALOS, RapidEye, SPOT4, SPOT5, SPOT6, SPOTMap) after compression using four different compression methods namely Joint Photographic Expert Group (JPEG), Embedded Zero tree Wavelet (EZW), Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Tree (SPIHT), Joint Photographic Expert Group – 2000 (JPEG 2000). The Mean Square Error (MSE), Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) values are calculated to determine the quality of the high resolution satellite images after compression.

Image compression is the process of reducing the size of a file without humiliating the quality of the image to an unacceptable level by Human Visual System. The reduction in file size allows as to store more data in less memory and speed up the transmission process in low bandwidth also, in case of satellite images it reduces the time required for the image to reach the ground station. In order to increase the transmission process compression plays an important role in remote sensing images.  This paper presents a coding scheme for satellite images using Vector Quantization. And it is a well-known technique for signal compression, and it is also the generalization of the scalar quantization.  The given satellite image is compressed using VCDemo software by creating codebooks for vector quantization and the quality of the compressed and decompressed image is compared by the Mean Square Error, Signal to Noise Ratio, Peak Signal to Noise Ratio values.

Quasi-mosaicity is an effect of secondary bending within a crystal driven by crystalline anisotropy. This effect can be used to fabricate a series of curved crystals for the realization of a Laue lens. It is highlighted that crystals bent by the quasi-mosaic effect allow very high resolution focusing with respect to mosaic crystals. Under the same conditions for energy passband, crystal size and flux of incident photons, a Laue lens based on quasi-mosaic crystals would increase the signal-to-noise ratio by about an order of magnitude compared to the same lens with mosaic crystals. Moreover, no mosaic defocusing occurs for quasi-mosaic crystals.

A two Level Image Quality enhancement is proposed in this paper. In the first level, Dualistic Sub-Image Histogram Equalization DSIHE method decomposes the original image into two sub-images based on median of original images. The second level deals with spikes shaped noise that may appear in the image after processing. We presents three methods of image enhancement GHE, LHE and proposed DSIHE that improve the visual quality of images. A comparative calculations is being carried out on above mentioned techniques to examine objective and subjective image quality parameters e.g. Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio PSNR values, entropy H and mean squared error MSE to measure the quality of gray scale enhanced images. For handling gray-level images, convenient Histogram Equalization methods e.g. GHE and LHE tend to change the mean brightness of an image to middle level of the gray-level range limiting their appropriateness for contrast enhancement in consumer electronics such as TV monitors. The DSIHE methods seem to overcome this disadvantage as they tend to preserve both, the brightness and contrast enhancement. Experimental results show that the proposed technique gives better results in terms of Discrete Entropy, Signal to Noise ratio and Mean Squared Error values than the Global and Local histogram-based equalization methods

Background: In this paper, we propose a secure image watermarking technique which is applied to grayscale and color images. It consists in applying the SVD (Singular Value Decomposition) in the Lifting Wavelet Transform domain for embedding a speech image (the watermark) into the host image. Methods: It also uses signature in the embedding and extraction steps. Its performance is justified by the computation of PSNR (Pick Signal to Noise Ratio), SSIM (Structural Similarity), SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio), SegSNR (Segmental SNR) and PESQ (Perceptual Evaluation Speech Quality). Results: The PSNR and SSIM are used for evaluating the perceptual quality of the watermarked image compared to the original image. The SNR, SegSNR and PESQ are used for evaluating the perceptual quality of the reconstructed or extracted speech signal compared to the original speech signal. Conclusion: The Results obtained from computation of PSNR, SSIM, SNR, SegSNR and PESQ show the performance of the proposed technique.
