I Should deliver exercise equipment. So y'all know it's a lot of y'all know I should live exercise equipment back in a day with the Mac and the K and then they have like some Amazon These are they call them monster boxes. I guess that the big palace like this We have all this stuff in here. I think these cost 655 I don't know one of the other oh 650 these are big joints.  These are some I guess it's the whole thing of mystery boxes. You bought a whole palette You know them up That this right here. I don't know I Don't know what I Don't know not a lot of this stuff. So This is like a toilet This probably like a maybe home Depot or something This one six fifth of these joints big So we had to come out here to see if we're gonna actually buy a Palate or if we're going to go ahead and get like some mystery boxes for our first for our first time Because if we do do a palette, we're gonna have to get a u-haul and drive it back So we already had that So this one the bottom box is a recliner this right here That's the recliner and then this pedestal one above it I'm pretty sure that's the pedestal this right here that goes underneath a brand new Samsung washer or dryer So they got those drawers that you set your washer dryer on top of Well This is 650 right here. It's the one of the monster one. So what is this? Garage door. It's not a garage door. It's damaged.

We want to let me get two foot. They wouldn't do all that I ain't got time real girl it so guys we have made a decision and we're gonna go with this one We don't know what's gonna happen for 650 and we're also gonna get another one for 350 I'm gonna show you guys that one too. We don't have to go to get to you all to you all places Probably like a it says 1.1 miles away. So it's kind of close.

Let's go see the other one Call it number two. This is how the number two. We're gonna get this one, too See what happened with it, baby. We got a little full time Know that so this one costs 350 or a few nipsy. Let's go well guys There has been a change of plans because guess what? No, nobody got no u-hauls We didn't call two or three people. They don't have any u-hauls. So we're gonna have to pass on the one for 650 and we're gonna get this off. We're getting them off for 350 and We're gonna get some mystery boxes. So that's what we're gonna have to do, baby We came unprepared because we know what to expect but it is what it is, baby We learning we growing and we going and growing you already know we already know what I say So we're gonna get this one for 350 and then we're gonna get the mystery boxes We're gonna be able to fit everything in the car and then we're gonna unbox this stuff when we get back to the house We keep it like a mouse.

Look you can store stuff in here Seat through exclusive jones. It's probably worth the hot 30 bobbers somewhere around that area Kitchen utensil set Very nice. Got the whole set up with that Spatulas all that all that good stuff. Bam. That's probably worth the hot dog somewhere around that area Just so you guys know I'm guessing on these prices. I don't know. None about none This ain't type stuff I do anyway. So I don't know This is a I don't know. Let's open it. It looks like for your kitchen Yeah, it definitely has something to do with kitchen stuff So you put it underneath your shelf and it holds your paper towel. It holds a towel and it's an extra shelf So for like under what you mean under the sink or where under your shelf under your cabinet You have a kitchen cabinet on the wall You put this basket thing underneath it and it holds a kitchen towel and it it's a basket I definitely don't know about that Um, this is I don't know. Let's check this out a lot of this stuff. I don't know guys I don't know none about this type of stuff because I don't you know I know what I know when I know what I know Comment below. Let me know if you guys know about all this stuff. It's like you learn new stuff every day Oreo butter slime for the kids A slime slime ski hit it with a slime ski slime Then we have The blue one and then we have a white one. So you can't see if you still play with slime anymore I know slime was huge back in the day But I'm back in the day like a few years ago nowadays. I don't know if I ever seen kids playing with slime Comment below. Let me know if your kids play with slime or if you know kids that play with slime Right there This joint feeling It's funny feeling like a spirit one of this stuff is it ain't gonna lie And you know what's so crazy. It's crazy how much how little we know about life and different things because You only know what you know and The flashlight that probably doesn't have batteries in it And you can just turn you can change like e-squiz and all that stuff and um a lot of other people that they are Used to this type of stuff and they know what it is the batteries right here They know what stuff is and it's a lot of stuff that we don't know what they'd be worth money I've been watching these uh, we've been watching this on the youtube People be having some stuff that I never even heard before. I'm talking about hundreds of thousands Thousands of something I don't know what I'm talking about.  Let's see Nice little dress They definitely want it. They definitely want it. So they got big deodorant on this job They ought to park and watch this job. They got big deodorant on this Probably worth five or $5 or something. This is some more, uh Cooking utensils Wow They got the whole set up these probably work. So these some other things No, yeah, silicone utensils Wifi repeated so this is right here, right? I know see I know about this. I know about this Like a little wi-fi thing, right? You can put these it is like pushes your wi-fi out to different areas in the house So say you got your whole little wi-fi set up in the living room And it's not reaching to the kids room upstairs or something So you can put this one in like in the middle between that between the living room and the kids room And it's gonna push it out there. So everybody can have better wi-fi. So, yeah These work actually pretty decent too Uh, I don't know what this is like some, uh, Christmas ornaments or something looks like There's snowman Oh see the snowman or something snow Make snowman. This is definitely a snowman. How you know that? Find the carrot nose on the Bitch snow as you guys saw in the videos today, we're gonna go take out liquidation pallets They did have target pallets wal-mart pallets and amazon pallets. We ended up with a wal-mart pallet We were going to get a amazon and wal-mart pallet But we could not get a u-haul to put everything in because we definitely wouldn't fit in the car This this uh wal-mart was building from the car. So, um life is all about making adjustments So once we couldn't get the u-haul pallet I mean once we couldn't get the u-haul we decided not to get the amazon pallet Then we go ahead we went ahead and got the wal-mart one And I think that we did pretty well for our first one msrp, baby It's $1,590 and 69 cents. We can't be got like we can't we got enough money to pay the rent, baby I mean, let's be realistic here. We're not going to get msrp for this stuff now So we chop everything in half. So if we sell everything half off we will make 795 thousand 34 cents And we'll have a profit of 245 dollars So just so you guys know We did not add the clothes and stuff thing like that like the little small stuff the little nicknacks The clothes and everything we're actually going to give that away to charity because People may have worried or something. So I don't know. So I'm just gonna leave out the clothes and everything But today was a very successful day. Actually, I had a good time doing it Comment below and let me know if you'd like these type of videos Um, we're actually going to start maybe posting stuff on ebay And maybe try to get some yard sale stuff going on and try to see if we can figure out something, baby But all in all we came to ball and we did we should look through the closet Doug we can do it at all, baby.  This is where you play the one why we playing around because 2022 is still back season We'll keep on giving reason. I see you guys on next one. We gonna be going before you already know the dk and i'm on my way


Hello, everyone. Welcome to today's lecture in the course remote sensing principles and applications. Over the last few lectures, we are discussing about the characteristics of remote sensing systems, how images are acquired and how the characteristic of the system will affect our data and all these concepts. So, we also we are going to continue with these concepts. In the last lecture, we discussed about how the spatial resolution of an object like how the size objects that are smaller in size than the pixel size or than the JFOV are deducted in one particular pixel. So, some basic concepts we have seen and where we also noted that the factors that enable us to see objects that are smaller than the GIFOV are and the contrast in the object space, the point spread function and or the empty of modular transfer function of the sensor, the signal to noise ratio of the sensor and also the context, the spatial context in which the feature is located. We saw what point spread function is, a basic explanation I gave. Similarly, what empty of again another basic explanation I gave. So, today we are going to continue with the further details about how objects smaller than a pixel size can be deducted. So, I already explained you clearly that contrast plays a major role in identifying an object. So, this gives like a very good example where the reflectance of the background and the target here. So, if your background is 0, target is 1, here the background is 0.04 for target reflectance is 0.08. Assuming both of them cover 50 percent of each 50 percent each of the GIFOV. So, this covers 50 percent of GIFOV, this covers 50 percent of GIFOV and so on. So, the average reflectance or the average DN that will be produced in this case is 128, assuming a 8 bit quantization. Assuming an 8 bit quantization, the DN produced for this particular pixel is will be 128, whereas for this particular pixel where the difference in reflectance is pretty low will be 15. So, how contrast the background and the feature is going to play a major role. The larger the contrast difference or larger the reflectance difference between the background and the feature of our interest, we will be able to identify the object more clearly. Actually, that is what happened and in this particular example which I showed you in the last class, like there is like a very large difference in the reflectance between the sand and this particular road.  And also the one more thing we have to notice. In addition to the contrast between the background and object, the sample scene phase is also important. Sample scene phase means how the object of our interest is oriented with respect to different pixels. Say for example, this is 4 GAFOV, like 4 adjacent GAFOV elements, a single feature of our interest is oriented like this. It is equally distributed among this 4 pixels, 4 GAFOV elements, whereas here the same object is now distributed in a non-equal fashion in the 4 GAFOV. So, essentially what will happen? The DN values finally that is being produced is going to be different because of the change or the difference in area coverage of background and object of interest. See this is our object of interest. This covers uniform area in all these 4 pixels, whereas here is the same object of interest is not covering uniform area in all the 4 pixels. It has a larger aerial coverage in this particular pixel, very low aerial coverage in pixel number 4, again limited aerial coverage in pixel number 2 and so on. So, when we get our final image, our ability to identify this particular feature will vary between these 2 images because of how the objects are orienting itself with respect to image. So, that is basically how objects of interest are aligned or oriented within the GAFOV. So, say for example, if this is 1 pixel, say 1 GAFOV and this is the object of our interest, so our object of interest will be much clearly seen in the GAFOV provided there is a very high contrast. But let us imagine the same object with the same like even we can take this particular example like 50-50 percent contrast difference. Even in this case, if the bright object, if it is oriented like this instead of being oriented in 1 pixel, if it is oriented like this, then the DN values for these 2 pixels will differ and our ability to identify this object of our interest will change. So, essentially, we will under some circumstances, we will be able to identify objects that are smaller than GAFOV, it is possible. So, the sum of the factors we have already seen, in addition to all these factors, the alignment or the orientation of the object of our interest in the image space or in the GAFOV elements, whether it is occupying 1 full GAFOV or it is distributed among like many different GAFOVs in small small aerial extent and so on are going to control our ability to identify that particular object. Till now, we have discussed in detail about the concepts of spatial resolution and so on. So, now we will go back a little and understand some characteristics about visc broom scanning and push broom scanning, some more characteristics. So, I said in visc broom scanning, sensor like satellite will be moving like this in the along track direction, the scanner will be scanning in across track direction. So, I was repeatedly telling some terms such as dwell time or time of integration and so on. I also told you that the dwell time in visc broom scanning will be very low and it will be little bit higher in push broom scanning. So, we are going to now see how this dwell time is, what is the concept of dwell time and how this will vary with respect to each type of scanning. So, let us consider there are n pixels per scan line of the image that is let us say the satellite is moving like this, this is the along track direction and this and the scanner will be scanning like this, this is the across track direction. And let us assume there are n pixels in one scan line. So, the number of pixels in one scan line is n, let us assume that. The satellite is moving with a ground velocity of v meter per second, v meter per second and assume the pixel size to be r by r. So, each pixel within the image has a size of r by r meter. So, essentially what the scanner has to do, the satellite is constantly moving like this in the along track direction. So, this scan line must be completed before the satellite moves ahead by distance of r, that is let us say for example, let us take a case of Landsat. So, in Landsat 7 the pixel size is 30 meters. So, the entire scan line along this particular across track direction must be scanned completely before the satellite moves at distance of 30 meters like starting from here this point to here this is 30 meter. So, this scan line must be completed before the satellite reaches the next 30 meter. Then only there would not be any data gaps else let us assume the satellite is moving faster rate than the scanning rate, then some pixels here will not be scanned properly. So, in order for us to collect all the data without any missing points it is necessary that the scanning is completed before the satellite moves ahead by one pixel size. So, by r meters here the example of Landsat it is the scan line must be completed before the satellite moves 30 meters. So, what is the time taken for one full scan line? One scan line must be completed within r by v seconds that is velocity is equal to distance by time. So, the distance has to be covered is r divided by time. So, time is equal to r by v seconds. So, within this particular time interval within this r by v seconds this scan line must be completed. So, for satellites in near polar orbit such as Landsat velocity will be around 6.5 to 7 kilometers per second that is every second the satellite will be moving with velocity of close to 6.7 kilometers per second which is pretty high and hence for scanner such as line scanner which has only one detector element or visc room scanner which has small number of detectors will have a very small dwell time in the order of micro seconds. So, having more number of detectors in the along track direction will increase the dwell time by some extent. So, this maybe we will see by an example. So, here in this example assume hypothetical sensor with 30 meter pixel size single detector. So, this is essentially a line scanner it has only one detector and 6000 samples per line that is in the last the theoretical explanation I gave n is 6000, 6000 samples per line in the nearer orbit assume v is equal to 7 kilometers per second calculate the dwell time taken for each pixel. So, now for a line scanner we are going to calculate the dwell time. So, traditionally what sensors will do is like in the last when I explained you the theory part I said before the satellite moves one pixel distance ahead the scanning should be complete. Essentially what will happen is in some scanners the scanner can scan in both the directions like this as well as like this it will start from here scan one full line. Then it will scan the next line and so on. So, because it scans one line the satellite moves it scans the next line the satellite moves this is possible in some scanners. In some olden day scanners the satellite or the sensor can scan in only one direction that is it scans like this it covers one full line it has to come back again to its starting position before the satellite moves to the next position that is full scan come back satellite moves to the next pixel full scan come back like that it will scan like I told you that a time taken or time available for scanning r by v second assuming the satellites can scan in both the directions like it can scan like this scan like this scan like this and so on. But if the satellite can scan in only one direction like olden day sensors, olden day Landsat satellites can scan in only one direction it has to go back to its starting position before it can scan the second line. If that is the case the time available per scan line will be not r by v but it will be r by 2 v. So, the time is now even reduced by half because the scan line is scanned this is called active scan phase or active scan time scanning is happening. So, one line is scanned now it has to go back without doing any scanning. So, it has to go back. So, that is called dormant time dormant it is not scanning actually. So, it scans it goes back next line it scans it goes back next line it scans and so on it proceeds for such sensors the time taken will be r by 2 v. So, the time available is still half. So, here we will see what will be the time available if the scan is happening in only one direction. So, here during the active scan cycle here we are assuming scanning happens in only one direction. So, the time available to complete one scan is 30 by 2 here I am bringing in the factor of 2 that is the satellite like the pixel size is 30 meters. So, essentially the satellite is moving like this let us assume the scan starts from here and it moves here. So, what should it should do let us assume this is like a 30 meter line and it has 6000 pixels n is equal to 6000. So, before the satellite moves to this second line the scanner should start from here scan to the end of this line and again it should go back to this point with the satellite would have moved by a distance of 30 meters. So, the time available for us now 30 by 2 that is just between sorry before the satellite crosses 15 meters distance the scan line should be completed the scan should start from this end and it should reach this end before the satellite moves a distance of 30 by 2 that is 15 meters. Then only for the remaining 15 meters this point can go back here and be ready in the starting position again. So, here it is 30 by 2 divided by velocity is 7000 meters per second everything we are converting into meters. So, divided by 7000 this gives 2.143 millisecond that is to start from this point A and end the scan at B the active scan the active scan is 2.143 millisecond whereas the total scan time start from A to B and ended point C at the end of 30 meters is twice of it 4.286 millisecond. So, that is what I am telling here is before the satellite moves one distance of 30 meters this should complete the scan go back to its initial state and be ready for its next scan line. So, the total time available for this entire cycle to be completed one scan go back to its starting point and be ready this entire process is 4.286 milliseconds. But the time available for the active scan starting from here to go here that is what that is when satellite scans the ground and the time available for that active scan is half of the total scan time that is 2.1 millisecond. So, if it is like 2.1 millisecond it has to now collect 6000 samples within that 2.1 milliseconds. So, hence 2.143 milliseconds divided by 6000 samples will give you 0.35 microseconds per pixel. Hence to collect data about one pixel the sensor has a time of 0.35 microseconds extremely small value. This is assuming a single detector and scan scanning takes place only in one direction. So, this is like highly restrictive whatever I said. Now we will see what will happen if we have 10 detectors in the along track direction that is for a visc broom we spoke about line scanner. Now we will talk about visc broom what will happen if we have 10 detectors in the along track direction. So, if we have 10 detectors in the along track direction and again assuming like here now it is visc broom assuming there are 10 detectors in the along track and still assuming the scanning takes place only in one direction like the active scan time is half the total time. Then the time available for active scan is 2.143 into 10 because here for one detector we got 2.143 milliseconds multiplied with 10 we will get 21.43 milliseconds because as the number of detectors increases the time available for data collection will increase like you can think the concept as like this. Let us say we have 10 detectors oriented like this this is the along track direction this is those 10 detectors. So, let us assume there is a point A here. So, first detector number 1 will see point A. Now the satellite will move to one pixel detector B will again see same point A and the signal will be sent to the corresponding pixel in the image. Similarly, third detector will again see point A but the signal again will be saved here for the same pixel on the ground. So, it is the concept is very simple the same point on the ground or seen multiple times by different different detectors and all the signals are combined together to produce the signal for one pixel. So, the same ground point A will be seen by a series of detectors as the satellite moves and all the signals collected for that particular ground point will be processed and saved together for one ground point ok which implies that instead of collecting signal with only one detector we are now collecting signal with 10 detectors over the same point which increases our time available by 10 fold that is the concept. If we have 6 detectors we have 6x more time if we have 16 detectors like Landsat had 16 detectors then we will have 16x or 16 times more time available than the time taken by one detector that is the idea. So, a same ground point can be imaged by different different detectors as the satellite moves in the along track direction that is how visc broom scanning works conceptually. So, if we consider 10 detectors in visc broom direction then the time available for one scan line one active scan line is 21.43 milliseconds 10 times more than our line scanner case and hence the time available for one sample is 3.57 micro seconds which is higher than 0.35 micro seconds 10 times higher than 0.35. So, having more number of detectors in the along track direction that is visc broom scanning will help us to get more dwell time than having only one detector called the line scanner. Okay, one more problem or one more issue with the visc broom scanner is I told you scanning is happening simultaneously when the satellite is moving forward. So, what we assumed here in the last example problem we assume the scanning will be over satellite will move to the next point scanning will be over satellite will move that is how we assumed and did the problem. So, in reality scanning will happen simultaneously as a satellite moves. So, as the scanner is scanning the satellite will be moving forward. So, the scan will not happen like this in a perfect perpendicular direction it will happen like in a skewed direction that is the satellite will be moving together and scanning will be happening like this. So, the image like look at this particular figure in the diagram. So, the scanning will not happen like this this is along track and this is across track. Scanning will not happen like this but it will happen like this because the satellite is moving as the scanner is doing its scan. So, essentially people will those who design the sensors will adjust for all those things like they will ensure there is no data gap there is no gap on the ground before the scanning scanner completes one's scan line. So, there must be some sort of correction mechanism because the satellite is continuously moving like this. But finally when we get an image we get a proper image with all the pixels in its space. So, essentially some sort of image correction has to be done to convert this non perpendicular scanning geometry into a proper image. So, we call it as like a scan line correction. So, most of the visc room scanners will have a scan line character especially like satellites like Landsat 7 and all which can scan in both the directions that is I told you some satellites can scan only in one direction. Some satellites have the capacity to scan in both like it will scan like this it will scan like this this in both the directions it can collect data from the ground that is the when that is the case the scan line correction becomes even more important that is the nature of the skewed data acquisition must be corrected and we must be in a position to create like a proper image without any gaps. So, this sort of image must be corrected to get this sort of image. That is with the scan line character on we will have image properly aligned like this. But without the scan line character the scan line will look something like this this is exact manner with lot of non overlapping pixels sorry with lot of overlapping pixels. In order to correct this there will always be a scan line character some mechanism to correct for this geometrical effect. So, in Landsat 7 when satellite was launched in 1999 in 2003 the scan line character failed. Hence they were not able to like the NASA and USGS people were not able to correct the image for this scan line geometry and the image was something like this this shown in this particular figure. This is pre scan line character failure March 3000 you can see like all the images are perfectly aligned all the pixels are there without any data gaps. Here after the scan line character happened after the scan line character failed you can see here there is not much of gap because this is like a overlapping area this portion there will be data overlap. But this portion there is kind of like gaps in the data because of non availability of scan line character element or the particular system available. So, a scan line character must be there available in order to correct for the scan line geometry effect. So, we saw now about the visc room scanner. Then we will move about like push room scanners. So, in visc room scanner the pixel size or the GSI the ground projected sample interval is identified or it is defined by our time of sample collection I told you at what interval we collect the samples from the continuous stream of signals coming in I told you that defines in both along track as well as across track direction that is across track and along track satellite the scanner is moving in the cross track scanner is moving in the cross satellite is moving in the along track in both the direction that is continuous motion continuous stream of energy will be coming in radiance will be coming in there will be always some sort of sampling occurring in both x and y directions. In case of push room detectors no need to scan in the across track there are like n number of detectors in the across track direction. So, the pixel size is defined by the distance between these two detectors I already told you the pixel size in push room sensors are defined by the distance between two adjacent detectors. So, they will define it and in the along track there will be a sampling because as the satellite is moving like this they will make sure that like this engineers will make sure that data is collected every line that is the sample is collected as soon as the satellite moves 1 pixel distance ahead. So, they will make sure the pixel size in the along track and across track direction are the same. So, essentially JFOV will be mostly equal to GSI for push room scanners this is one thing and in push room scanners let us take the example of our older example like 6000 samples we have to collect. So, in 6000 samples when we have to collect like we will go back to the previous example what we have done. Yes, here let us assume we have to collect 6000 samples then there will be 6000 detectors in the across track if it is a push room scanner there will be 6000 detectors in the across track direction. So, what is the time available for us the time available for us to complete one line is 4 milliseconds 4.2 milliseconds that is satellite has a time of 4.2 millisecond to move from starting point to 30 meters ahead right. So, it can collect data for the entire 4.2 milliseconds. In case of visc room scanner since the scanner is moving we had a trouble the time available was very less. But let us imagine for a push room for a push room sensor if this is the case there will be 6000 detectors in the along across track direction. Hence all the ground points will be imaged simultaneously. So, for this whole 4.2 milliseconds there is no scanning involved for the whole 4.2 milliseconds sensors can see the ground continuously which will ensure that all the 6000 pixels the data are collected for the whole 4.2 milliseconds. Hence push room scanner has a much larger dwell time than visc room scanners because in visc room the time we got is like something close to 35 microseconds per pixel whereas in case of push room the time there since there are no scanning element is involved each detector can see each point on the ground continuously for the whole 4 milliseconds. And hence the time is just see the time difference there we had 35 microseconds here we have 4 milliseconds for data to be collected. So, the time available for data collection in push room sensor is much higher than the time available for data collection in visc room scanner or line scanner. So, that is what is mentioned in this particular slide increasing the time of integration like push room scanner has a lot of time to collect data increasing the time of integration will lead to collection of high amount of radiation that is radiance basically which will increase the signal to noise ratio and which can be translated to improve the spatial spectral or radiometric resolution of the data. That is higher the amount of signal collected will lead to high SNR ratio and hence we can use this improved SNR for increasing either the spatial or spectral or radiometric resolutions. So, we have just covered in detail about the spatial resolution we will see about spectral and radiometric resolutions in the coming lectures. So, before we close down this lecture I want to ask you two questions. So, after each question please pass the video for few seconds think over and check the video for your answer. The first question is is it possible to increase a dwell time to a great extent say order of seconds using thousands of detectors in the visc broom scanning. That is I told you when we had like 10 detectors the time increased by 10 force from 3 microseconds sorry 0.3 microseconds it became 3 microseconds. Can we put 1000 detectors in the along track and do visc broom scanning is it possible? Please think over and let me know this in the along track now I am not talking about push broom I am talking about visc broom in visc broom is it possible to have say 1000 detectors aligned in along track and do a scanning which may increase the time by a lot second just think over and let me know. The answer is no we cannot keep on increasing the number of detectors in the along track direction for visc broom scanners because it is not only the scanner is moving also the earth is moving underneath it. So, what I told you conceptually how visc broom collects data say a same this is the along track say this is like ground point A if you have 10 detectors all the 10 detectors one by one will see the point A which will be processed as one single point. So, the same ground point will be imaged by 10 detectors. Let us assume we have 1000 detectors. So, this point A as the detector is moving like this in the along track direction due to earth's motion underneath now the point A would have moved somewhere here and the new ground point from here more example B would have come here. So, as earth is moving underneath continuously we cannot keep on increasing the number of detectors in the along track direction for visc broom because even before one line is completed or the same point is imaged multiple times earth underneath would have moved actually it is not it is a problem in sensors like as the dwell time increases like even in case of like push broom or 2D array as a dwell time increases the earth's motion becomes a major problem earth is constantly moving at a much faster rate. So, the points ground points will be keep on moving which will actually degrade the image quality and also may produce geometric errors as before the standing completes if the ground point underneath it moves means the sensor will be wrongly imaging a different point rather thinking that it is point A we will now be imaging point B which is not correct. So, it is not possible to keep on adding the detectors in the along track direction as the dwell time also remember as the dwell time increases even in case of like push broom scanners push broom sensors earth's motion becomes important which will cause image degradation image will blur a lot because we know that with a normal photography as the object moves we get a blurred image image will not be sharp right same thing will happen as we are looking at the same pixel for a very long time that pixel under the ground like this is the scanner sorry this is the push broom detector the ground point underneath it will be constantly moving. So, as we keep the sensor here for more dwell time the point will be moving it may move away after some time we will be wrongly looking at it. So, the image motion or earth's motion we have to always account for when we plan to increase the dwell time the dwell time should be increased keeping in mind it cannot be a very long time it should be short such that data over one ground point should be collected before the ground point moves away because of earth's rotation see we cannot keep a sensor permanently fixed and earth will be constantly moving with us. So, the image should be collected before the ground point moves away due to earth's rotation keep this in mind. Second question what I want to ask is what do you think as a drawback of push broom or array type sensor for RS? I told you they have lot of benefits increased dwell time which causes improved signal to noise ratio and limited distortions and so on. But there is a major drawback not a drawback but we need to always take care about one thing think about it come back after few seconds. The answer is I told you when we have more number of detectors say n number of detectors when we talked about image acquisition process or image formation process I told you the radiance are stored as dn values in the image when this happens there will be a calibration phase like l max minus l min by dn max minus dn min some sort of equation I told you like that. So, which is essentially rating the radiance observed with the dn value that is produced. So, having multiple detectors means all the multiple detectors must be calibrated exactly to the same point. So, there should not be any difference between them because say in case of like more number of detectors whatever be the number of detectors when they see the ground for the same amount of radiance they must produce the same dn then only image quality will be proper. If say each sensor has a different different calibration factors then the dn in the image will be changed because of this difference. So, when the number of detectors increase either in push broom or vis broom whatever the relative calibration between them must be properly done that is all the detectors whether it is 10 or 16 or 100 or 1000 does not matter all detectors in a given band must produce same dn for same radiance received. That check or that kind of calibration is not very easy to do having doing relative calibration of all the sensor is a quite difficult task that is why in olden days sensors were not push broom type they were mostly like having the scanning mechanism with limited number of detectors. But now with advanced technology people are going for push broom and even 2D arrays because the calibration can be done rigorously. But remember having more number of detectors means more calibration must be done all detectors must be calibrated to the same point such that they produce same output for the same input. So, as summary in today's class we have discussed in detail about characteristics of vis broom systems, push broom systems, calculation of dwell time and concepts such as how to increase dwell time and so on. With this we end this lecture. Thank you very much.


Hey, hello and welcome to the final episode while the final for peers and I at least still to come next week You've got a mini two parter where Stephen is counting down the top ten Episode one ten to six an episode two five to one of the biggest banking themes of the year I've already recorded those. They're pretty cool if I don't mind saying so myself You definitely need to give those a listen, but one thing that you'll enjoy peers when you listen to that episode is you you get a shout out Actually the SVB episode Appears to be everyone's favorite unanimous decision that by the board. Okay Done. I'll take that It's it's a long time ago that might if I'm still Basking in the glory of something that happened nine months ago Yeah, what have you been doing for the last exactly one might ask But let's keep it on point for this episode because this particular week It's going to be bookended for the year really with the major central bank decisions just within the last 24 hours We've had the US Federal Reserve the UK's Bank of England and the European Central Bank All of which have left interest rates on hold that was very much as widely expected by the market However Hey, there's been a huge reaction in markets, but it hasn't been on all three of them predominantly It's on one and then also there's a little bit of divergence between the three as well So perhaps we can start from the top and talk about the big one and the first one Which was the US Federal Reserve. So what happened there and why have bonds and yields? Bonds soaring into your hand here. Yeah, it's a good one with these fair denouncements. I should say Yeah, indeed With these fed an ices because actually on the face of it. What did they do? Well, actually they did nothing because interest rates Remain unchanged So the interest rate in the US is 5.5 percent and it has been thus since the summer And it continues to be 5.5 percent so actually technically have any Monetary policy conditions changed the answer is no however, the markets ripped and Smashed up. Well, we'll talk about some nuances generally speaking markets ripped There's a pop few pockets of interest where you've seen some some downside movement But yeah, generally markets went through the roof and and why and so it's more about the language that they use That's the Federal Reserve now to talk about what they're going to do in the future. They're more specifically What are they going to do in 2024 with interest rates? And that's that's ultimately the biggest force on markets today what's going to happen to interest rates in the next 12 months and What makes and that's generally speaking always the case right markets are looking maybe let's just call it Six months ahead. That's where their play pricing is based on what we think is coming in in the next sort of six months Now that's normally the state of play what we've got here is like a double whammy you add on an extra bit of spice because not only Are we looking out of the six months? Well, what's going to happen in the next six months is that we're going to get a turn in direction of the monetary policy cycle, so we're right at the pinnacle of the upward trajectory of interest rates that trajectory has been going up for like 18 Months more actually 20 well, let's just call it 21 months. We've been going up and now we're at the top and the key is now We're going to go back down. So what we have here. We're right in this This kind of limbo period between the interest rate hiking cycle and the interest rate cutting cycle And this is always and then the same can be said for the bottom right when you when you've when you've gone through the cutting cycle And right when's the hiking cycle going to start whenever you're at the top or the bottom of the cycle markets become hypersensitive To then the timing of when will when will the change in direction actually occur? So that's where we are at the moment. And so what happened last night? Well the Fed I mean No, I've been I've been watching central bankers talk for 20 years and What last night? Well, I'd say was one of the most clear Decisive communications. I think I've ever seen in a really surprising way because markets have been on the up for the last Cup last November was awesome, right? For stocks that went through the roof bond prices went through the roof as well as bond yields dropped and The thought going into the meeting was well, hang on a minute The Fed aren't gonna like the fact that stock markets have gone through the roof here They've gone through the roof on the expectation that we're going to get rate cuts next year And the general thought was well, the Fed aren't gonna like this The markets have got carried away with themselves yet again You know being over optimistic about what the monetary conditions might be and the thought was the Fed was step up last night and Slap these markets back down and the power go Don't don't get carried away Rates are gonna stay higher for longer. This inflation Genie is not back in the bottle yet. Calm yourselves down. That's what we thought was gonna happen except He came out and basically said guys Here's the punch bowl. You've been drinking out of the punch bowl for the last month The stocks are going up and he's just doused in another bottle of vodka and he said let's go. Let's party He basically I guess he's flipped from being Yeah, rather than being rates are gonna stay high for longer he's basically saying we're now gonna start cutting and Yeah, rather than higher for longer. It's now higher for shorter That's the best way of describing it and so yeah Yeah, what I've just tussled within my head there is whether compliance will sign off that tagline there Which I'm definitely gonna use for this episode. He's come in and doused another bottle of vodka in the punch bowl I'm not sure that one will pass but no good analogy at least and Okay, so that that explains the Fed so given that the Fed are in charge of the world's Most important economy Would you have normally have thought then that someone like the Bank of England the ECB would be forced to follow or Their economic conditions dictate then a different course of action. So what's the difference here? I mean what's happened? Yeah, so the economic conditions are slightly different though These these economies they're not in lockstep perfect sync and in fact covid's really kind of shunted Economies out of sync in in many ways and so they're not perfectly in sync so You shouldn't expect The communication from these central banks to be exactly the same And that's really what's happened. So today Thursday the 14th We've had the Bank of England and the ECB with their meetings and their press conferences and they've been more hawkish So definitely they're not stepping out and going guys. We're cutting rates next year. You're absolutely right That's what Jay Powell said last night And the Bank of England are more like higher for longer, you know, they're basically saying what Powell was saying six months ago You know higher for longer inflation. We haven't tackled this inflation crisis Isn't over, you know all that kind of language That's what the Bank of England is still saying and the and the reason for that. I Mean, you just look at the set of numbers that really matter and that is inflation So when it comes to interest rates, it's inflation That's that's what is driving interest rate decisions at the moment and if you look across the three territories Well in the US the headline CPI rate is 3.1 percent The core CPI rate, which is perhaps more important is at 4% Okay And these numbers have been dropping and dropping and dropping hence why we're starting to hear them talk about rate cuts If you compare that to the UK So the headline CPI rate in the UK is 4.6 percent. That's compared to the US 3.1 So I'm decent amount higher core Well core it's 5.7 percent still in the UK versus the US 4 percent So that inflations it's come down slower in the UK And it hasn't come down far enough yet for the Bank of England to be ready to do a J-PAL and Just douse the punch ball with some more booze. So what they're gonna wait That's that's one thing to say. All right, where I've got some beef with the Bank of England is So they've got nine People on their voting committee, right? And so each meeting they Between the everyone gets one vote and then the majority rules. Okay now last sorry at lunchtime today The vote split was six three basically what happened was of these nine people six voted to keep interest rates unchanged You still got three members of the Bank of England who are voting for hikes not cuts So here you've got a real divergence between the Fed and the Bank of England There's everyone on the Fed is going right. We're ready to start cutting rates in the new year Whereas in the Bank of England, you still got three out of the nine Going actually we should be hiking. So but what I my point around where my beef is here is ultimately Generally speaking The US economy does its thing and then everyone else follows because it's such a dominant force on the planet, right? And so To expect the UK to head off in a sudden massive opposite direction economically to the US It's just not gonna happen. We're too synced even though the sink is a little bit out of step ultimately We are synced and so what happens in the US generally is gonna happen here So I think the Bank of England should be They should be voting 9-0 to keep rates on whole there shouldn't be anybody still voting to hike in my opinion, but So from an economic perspective in the UK so earlier this week The UK economy think it was October data because backward-looking contracted point three percent Issue is falling. She'll see goes against the grain of the three who are looking to hike my question is are we in the sweet spot for global equities right now because Yes, growth has been very robust in the US, but as we're going to see going forward. It's likely to weaken Going forward. So growth potential is going to get worse as downside risks there. So at the moment stocks are kind of Um steroid induced by this idea of rates are going to come down, but as the economy actually starts to slow What does then that look like as we go further into next year? Yeah, so So comparing the two again the US versus the UK the US economy is really strong Like they've got like if you're if you're a stock, right a share price in the US is that's the sweet spot We talked about Goldilocks, right? You've actually got a strong economy positive and you got the Fed are going to cut rates positive in the UK it's kind of The exact opposite where you've got an economy that's weak now and actually contracted as you said in October and The Bank of England are still Threatening to hike right so you kind of got the double negative now There are slight nuances as to why the Bank of England are being a bit more stubborn I said inflation's high the thing is here in the UK Yes, the economy is weaker, but Inflation still high and the thing is we still got services price inflation that's very elevated and the wage growth numbers Are still very elevated and you've had stuff like the government raising the minimum wage And things like this which feeds into wage growth now The thing about that is especially at the bottom end of the spectrum in terms of income levels If you're getting wage growth at the very bottom end that tends to be more inflationary That's because people earning lower income end of the bracket. They're tending to spend all of their income on Domestically, okay top end of the wage bracket the super rich. They're not spending all their income because There's too much of it to spend right and they're investing it in stocks and other assets plus they typically travel more So you're getting more spending internationally as well So from an inflationary point of view where the UK is a little bit different to the US the wage growth is still Elevated and at the lower income level. That's what the Bank of England adjust They're kind of just looking over their shoulder a bit going hang on That that kind of beast is still in view and whilst that's still lingering. They don't want to start celebrating That the inflation crisis is over what which is fair enough, I guess, okay, so This seems to be quite a clear contrast between what you've discussed the US and the UK So where does Europe fit within that spectrum? Europe's kind of well So let me compare them again. So I was going through this inflation numbers, right? Well, well actually also let's look at the the actual What's the level of interest rates because actually the Fed have got the highest interest rate at the moment? 5.5% but they've signaled they're going to start to cut the Bank of England are slightly below at 5.25% basically saying they're at the top But they're not ready to cut actually the ECB is lower still at 4.5 So the ECB's hiking cycle was smaller number one Interestingly, I have the whole three inflation levels in the eurozone are the lowest So the headline CPI is 2.4 percent below the US 3.1 below the UK 4.6 and Their core CPI is 3.6 percent below the US is 4 percent below the UK's 5.7 So they've got the lowest interest rates. They've got the lowest inflation rates, but The ECB are notoriously Slow, they're not proactive You know, it's due to the fact you've got, you know, ultimately 19 countries around the table all putting in their own thing And they're all very different economies. That's just a lot harder to get stuff done So Lagarde Christine Lagarde the president of the ECB was basically saying they did not discuss the idea of cutting interest rates at all in the meeting and She was basically saying, you know cutting rates actually she made quite a good analogy Cutting rates too soon after the most aggressive series of rate rises in the ECB's history Would be like passing From solid to gas Without going through the liquid phase As you were just when you said solid where you said it and then gas Yeah, I certainly wasn't thinking of probably what she was intending So there's your a little bit of a GCSE physics Lesson for you in the ECB meeting this afternoon But yes, they're not they're closer to the Bank of England in the respect of They're waiting and they're being a bit more prudent and conservative, which is always their way Even though their inflation levels are lower than anyone else's and you could argue economically They're in worse shape But the good old ECB Sit there and do nothing. So yeah, I'm not surprised Okay final question then you said at the top of the show that there are some pockets that haven't reacted so favorably So what would those pockets be? Yeah, right? So this is life. I just list out some of the market moves. Let's just go back to the big boys now and talk about the Fed I Talk about some of the the market reactions on Wednesday night when power was super dovish saying right we're cutting rates Let's go. Let's go. Now. I talked with a couple of weeks ago about how This is phenomenal news For companies that you would put in the category of being interest rates sensitive So companies where when borrowing costs are high, that's really bad news for them And that's tends to be growth stocks who are more highly levered I'm borrowing more to invest in their growth because they've got loads more growth to go So let's accelerate that by borrowing money So that whole growth stock heart tends to be and that that's the section of the market There's been batted down and particularly in the smaller companies as well So the small cap so there's an index called the Russell 2000 in the US Which is that an index of 2000 small cap US stocks. So that was up three and a half percent on Wednesday night So that's your small Interest rate sensitive stocks really powering north. Okay, you've got bond yields. Well, they're dropping Certainly at the show what we call the shorter end of the curve I don't want to go too technical here, but like a two-year government bond the yields were down 30 basis points 0.3 percent, which is a big move and then It's not just us stocks, right that are feeding off of this and here's a really good point to make We just talked about the Bank of England and the ECB not doing the same as power. They're not saying we're going to cut and yet European and UK stocks are up Why because it's the US that's more important So actually and check this out The DAX that's the German stock market hit a new all-time high on Wednesday night DAX futures and again this morning new all-time high Not because the ECB are saying they're cutting rates because they didn't it's because the Fed are saying they're cutting rates You had the footsie up 1.6 percent European stocks through the roof the dollar index dropped sharply. You've got gold prices higher Again all-time highs so lots of movement all over the place But the most interesting I think and actually it's something Stephen mentioned for our regular listeners. He coined quite a good Terminal I hadn't heard it. I don't know if he he came up with it himself or he read it somewhere But he talked about it's not the S&P 500 It's the S&P 7 And then it's the remaining S&P 493 So the the S&P 7 meaning the magnificent 7 the big 7 tech stocks in the US. So what happened this week on Wednesday was Something happened that has not happened for for the entire year and that is the S&P was up on the day With all seven of the magnificent seven being down on the day That was the only single day of the entire year where that's happened and actually that's only happened on five days in the last five years Such as the dominance of these seven stocks normally if these seven stocks are up the index is up if the seven stocks are down The index is down on Wednesday The seven stocks were down and the index was up and what's happening is money is flowing out of those Magnificent seven who are not interest rate sensitive even though they're tech stocks You could say and there's still plenty of growth for some of them. They're such cash flow So cash flow generative they don't borrow money, right? So they're not they're not they're immune to the interest rate Hikes so they've done really well this year as rates have been going up So now rates have been signalling to go down. You're getting people book profit on the magnificent seven Push this money down into the lower cap stocks So yeah Magnificent seven down whilst the index was up first time in the whole year But just to be clear You're not writing off the magnificent seven for 2024. No, so just to be clear There's a bit of a rotation of what we call a rotation of assets here, right? Where you're getting some players that have been running these strategies all year long the seven and Not invested in the others or maybe you got some going short the others if they got more extreme strategy All you've got is a little bit of a strategy shift Where you're taking some of the money off the table from the seven to pivot elsewhere, but this means the seven dip Have you heard of the terminology by the dip? Well, yeah, so those who aren't in the magnificent seven or who aren't invested enough in their opinion This is their chance to come in on those stocks. So yeah For sure, I'm not calling the top on the magnificent seven Just to specify this podcast is not sponsored by it aro or IG When we start talking by the dips Okay, well, let's let's wrap it up there final episode of the year.

Ready when you are ladies and gentlemen silent mic back with another video. We're on set today or on location like the news station Awkward athletics about to max out so we might see some of that footage over this But I got a question. I got a comment. We got to talk about recovery I actually saw a lot of BS first thing just like this video help your boy out Let's get to a thousand second thing. I appreciate all the support views comments subscribers welcome. I see you We appreciate it third thing scroll through Instagram scroll through YouTube There's a lot of BS on recovery out there and I was just waiting to rant on recovery and all the BS I told you guys I'm trying to curse less. I'm doing good so far creams and supplements and Saunas and this and that and there's more gimmicks rolling around in the industry I thought the gimmicks were done in the 1990s and obviously I am incorrect the supplements Look, you want to take some creatine monohydrate go for it might help you a little bit You want to take some protein as a supplement because you don't can't or won't get enough protein intake from food Go for it a protein supplement in my opinion way casing.  Let's eat some fruits Let's get our food in let's track our calories because we're not tracking our calories taking all these pre-workout posts work All the stuff's waste of time and that's kind of where we're getting with this conversation here So my man says hey Mike, how do you deal with recovery? I can't get the training for you can see that I need to improve because the recovery process is taking too much There are times where I have to take off an exercise such as squats because I'm either physically taxed or mentally drained I usually try to get to Sessions of back squat and one session of squat variation as well as one deadlift session and maybe one deadlift variation But slot of times I have to take off squat sessions because my body is just too fatigued same with bench I try to do three sessions mixed between barbell dumbbell secondary muscles. So recovery basically Is a balance of how much stimulus we're throwing in? How much fitness we already have that we can recover from and Depending on the phase and block of training depending on the ultimate goal We want that stimulus coming them in to be just slightly above what we're capable of doing or fitnessing Recovering from right now, right because then we'll take that stimulus will adapt from it And then our level will grow It's not linear. So we can't just constantly add a rep Coaches here can't constantly just add a rep or add weight Because it'll accumulate too fast and our body won't be able to keep up You'll either get injured or just not be able to move the weight, right? I Don't know what my man's going through and I don't know what program he's following I don't know any information about his genetics his history how strong he is in the volume.  I rode my bike over here 15 minute warm-up.  It's absolutely. Okay. Am I gonna hit a earth shattering PR? Maybe not, but I'm gonna be able to get the work in that I need Resting periods may have a something going on here with this month with this guy again. There's not enough information for me to say So within a session knowing your program Sleeping enough and nutrition those are literally all we can handle in our recovery Those are 98% of what we can do the rest of it might be some kind of creatine Monohydrate maybe a protein supplement maybe timing our carbs in before and after our workout to fill up our glycogen and have enough Energy to perform that session in our next session help recovery a little bit spacing out a protein throughout the day Those are some minor things that might get us to 99% But otherwise the literally everything we have to worry about is what type of program we're following Does it fit my needs as a lifter towards my goals and where I am in terms of experience? How's my nutrition either eating a slight surplus or even a bigger surplus the more food Obviously, you're gonna feel a little bit better have more energy and recover a little bit better And how much sleep am I getting how much consistent sleep am I getting in terms of hours in terms of time that I go to bed? And time that I wake up being consistent Consistency just as in the gym just as in our sleep just in our eating patterns is all gonna be number one key protein intake like I said spread out also about Gram per pound of body weight or lean body mass is gonna be number one But there's no there's no secret and I know you guys are being sold by all your favorite youtubers all your favorite Instagrammers all the popular girls and guys all over the internet are telling you to take this supplement There's pre-workout this post this this and this use this sauna and this Pill but none of that's gonna make a difference And that's the honest to God's truth and maybe you don't want to hear that from me And maybe you don't want to believe me Maybe you guys are in here saying Mike's a hater and you guys can bash that in the comments all you want But I'm telling you the truth. I've been through those cycles and I don't mean steroid cycles I mean I've been through those mental cycles from age 18 to 22 where I was looking for any answer I could in the world to give me an upper-edge to allow me to squat 400 pounds. It took me a long time It took a lot of work, but instead I just decided to literally get rid of everything I take no supplements I take a little coffee pre-workout sometimes I'll have a protein bar here and there if I'm driving or I have to get a snack in Otherwise, it's just a matter of mind over matter being consistent as you can not missing possessions and following the plan In terms of how many sessions a week and not being over recover There was another question the guy said oh, I can only do two a week and then I get too tired You will be tired You will be fatigued when you add in new frequency or new volume You have to give yourself two three maybe even four weeks before you can even adapt to the type of frequency or volume So continue to push through don't worry about the soreness again focus on the nutrition and sleep So you can get through it safely warm up properly And don't go from doing zero sets of squats a week to 30 sets of squat a week You need to slowly gradually add how many days and the volume you're doing But also give yourself time to adapt because it will take time to go through those cycles I started weightlifting three times a week once I felt really good I did that for about two months now we're weightlifting four to five times a week now I'm still a little beat up a little bit sore But that's just part of the process and then as soon as I get through that I might add a six day or I might add a little bit more volume to each session And that's just how you progress through all volume and all frequency Recovery is hard Lifting is supposed to be hard You're supposed to be a little bit sore You're supposed to be a little bit beat up physically and mentally not all day every day every training cycle But there will be waves and when you're motivated there will be waves and when you feel awesome and when you feel strong You can be strong and not feel strong. I feel very weak right now I feel very tired in my legs But I know I'm going to be able to hit the weights I want to hit on the front squat today Which is probably I don't know 150 160 for a triple What you feel isn't exactly what's going on all the time Hope you guys enjoyed this video be sure to give this thing a thumbs up new videos Monday Wednesday Saturday new podcast every Wednesday I appreciate you guys. I'm like What I says come back season I'm tired tired being fat Not strong.
