Sažetak
Image fusion methods aim at fusing low resolution and high-resolution image to obtain a new image that provides new information for the specific application. The main goal of this article is multitemporal Sentinel-2 image fusion using single WorldView-4 satellite image for urban area monitoring. Fusing those images should provide Sentinel-2 image with similar radiometric band value as original Sentinel-2 image, but with a spatial resolution of WorldView-4. Ehlers, Brovey Transform, Modified Intensity-Hue-Saturation, High-Pass Filtering, Hyperspherical Colour Space and Wavelet resolution merge fusion techniques were used for spatial enhancement of Sentinel-2 images. Original and fused images were first compared using standard statistical parameters, mean, median and standard deviation. Image quality analysis was conducted with different objective image quality measures like root mean square error, peak signal to noise ratio, universal image quality index, structural similarity index, relative dimensionless global error, spatial correlation coefficient, relative average spectral error, spectral angle mapper, multi-scale structural similarity index. Using these quality measures helped in determining the spectral and spatial preservation of fused images. Hyperspherical colour space method was selected as the best method for image fusion of Sentinel-2 and WorldView-4 image-based on standard statistical parameters and quality measures
