Processing Methods for Digital Image Data Based on the Geographic Information System by Xi Wang, Taizheng Chen, Dongwei Li, Shiqi Yu

“…Digital image data processing is mainly to input digital image data into a computer to complete the conversion of a continuous spatially distributed image model into a discrete digital model so that the computer can identify, process, and store the processing process of digital image information. Geographic information system (GIS) is a computer system that integrates multiple forms of information expression, and it integrates functions such as collection, processing, transmission, storage, management, analysis, expression, and query retrieval, which can quickly discover the spatial distribution of things and their attributes and can express the results accurately and vividly in various intuitive forms. …”
