Description
Summary:Based on the setting up of the function relation between the radiant brightness of ice-surface and the elevation control point in Antarctica, the experiments for the extraction of elevation information by using thermal infrared image of Landsat TM band 6, and the ice-surface topographical maps in area nearby Larsemann Hills have been performed.
