In this work it was analyzed the validation of CBERS-1 (China and Brazillian Earth Resourses Satellite) data related to qualitative and quantitative parameters that define the precision of its georeferencing. A topographical survey was carried out for the acquisition of ground control points spatially well distributed in the study area, employing differential GPS, aiming at the georeferencing of the image. Tests with different numbers of sampling points and several methods of Geometric Transformation and Resampling were made during the georeferencing. These results were statistically analyzed to determine the best method to georeference CBERS-1 images. It was verified that the first-degree polinomial transformation with nearest neighborhood resampling presented the best result, showing a precision of 18,52m.

Large scale base map can be obtained by various methods, one of them is orthorectification process of remote sensing satellite imagery to eliminate the relief displacement caused by height variation of earth surface. To obtain a  map images with good quality,  it requires additional data such as sensor model in the form of rational polynomial coefficients (RPC), surface model data, and ground control points Satellite imageries with high resolution  file size are relatively large.  In order to process them,  high specification of hardwares were required. To overcome this by cutting only a portion of the images, based on certain study areas were suffer from of georeference lost so it would not be able to orthorectified. On the other hand,  in several remote sensing software such as ESA SNAP and Orfeo Toolbox (OTB)  subset or pixel extraction from satellite imagery,  preserve the imagery geometric sensor models. This research aimed at geometric accuracy of orthorectification carried out in a single scene of Pleiades Imagery within the Kepahiang Subdistrict, located at Kepahiang Regency, Bengkulu Province, by using DEMNAS and the imagery refined sensor mode, and ground control points taken using GPS Survey. Related with the raw imagery condition which consists of Panchromatic and multispectral bands, this study were separated to assembly, pan sharpening , and sensor model refinement stages prior to orthorectification carried out both in the original or full extent imagery and the result of subset extent imagery. After  these processses taken place, we measure the accuracy of each full and subset imagery.These procedures were carried out using Orfeo toolbox 6.6.0 in the Linux Mint 19 Operating system. From the process log, running time in total  were 7814.518  second for the full extent and 4321.95 seconds for the subset processess. And as a big data process, the total of full extent imageries was 83.15 GB  while the subset size  was  only 30.73 GB.  The relative accuracy of the full extent and its subset imagery were 0.431 meters. Accuracy of the  sensor model refinement process are  1.217 meters and 1.550 meters with GCP added, while the accuracu of  the orthorectifications results were  0.416 meters and 0.751 meters by using ICP.  Variation of execution time may caused by the data input size and complexity of the mathematical process carried out in each stages. Meanwhile,  the variation of accuracy may  caused by the check or control points placements above satellite Imagery which suffer from uncertainty when dealing with  the sub-pixel position or under 0.5 meters.

Digital Surface Model (DSM) derived from high resolution satellite imagery is important for various applications. GFDM is China’s first civil optical remote sensing satellite with multiple agile imaging modes and sub-meter resolution. Its panchromatic resolution is 0.5 m and 1.68 m for multi-spectral images. Compared with the onboard stereo viewing instruments (0.8 m for forward image, 0.65 m for back image, and 2.6 m for back multi-spectrum images) of GF-7, a mapping satellite of China in the same period, their accuracy is very similar. However, the accuracy of GFDM DSM has not yet been verified or fully characterized, and the detailed difference between the two has not yet been assessed either. This paper evaluates the DSM accuracy generated by GFDM and GF-7 satellite imagery using high-precision reference DSM and the observations of Ground Control Points (GCPs) as the reference data. A method to evaluate the DSM accuracy based on regional DSM errors and GCPs errors is proposed. Through the analysis of DSM subtraction, profile lines, strips detection and residuals coupling differences, the differences of DSM overall accuracy, vertical accuracy, horizontal accuracy and the strips errors between GFDM DSM and GF-7 DSM are evaluated. The results show that the overall accuracy of both is close while the vertical accuracy is slightly different. When regional DSM is used as the benchmark, the GFDM DSM has a slight advantage in elevation accuracy, but there are some regular fluctuation strips with small amplitude. When GCPs are used as the reference, the elevation Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of GFDM DSM is about 0.94 m, and that of GF-7 is 0.67 m. GF-7 DSM is more accurate, but both of the errors are within 1 m. The DSM image residuals of the GF-7 are within 0.5 pixel, while the residuals of GFDM are relatively large, reaching 0.8 pixel.
