FIGURE 2.4 Fused multispectral image band 3 using Ehlers fusion. Geometric quality of the
image has significantly improved and the spectral characteristics of the multispectral image are
well preserved.
FIGURE 2.5 Band 3 (red) of RapidEye image from August 16, 2009 (resampled from 6.5 to 1 m,
left) and IKONOS/RapidEye fusion result (right). Besides a much improved spatial resolution, the
result shows an excellent spectral fidelity despite the four-year difference between the images.
