KEYWORDS -- List of Keywords

The ability to retrieve information has been greatly improved through the use of keyword searches. Every EASI/PACE program has keywords associated with it, and users can search for programs by using keywords, through the EASI and Xpace interfaces. In order to assist the user in utilizing the keyword search utility, this guide to common keywords has been compiled.

A specific keyword has been assigned to each PACE package:

 airortho      (Airphoto Ortho and DEM)
 atmcor        (Atmospheric Correction)
 avhrr         (AVHRR Orbital Navigation)
 favour        {Favourability Analysis}
 geoanalyst    {GeoAnalyst}
 geocor        (Geometric Correction)
 hyperspectral (Hyperspectral)
 kernel        (Image Analysis Kernel)
 imagelock     (ImageLock Data Fusion)
 imagproc      (Image Processing)
 interferometry(Interferometry)
 links         (GIS Links)
 mapout        (Map Output)
 multilayer    (Multilayer Modelling)
 multispectral (Multispectral Analysis)
 neural        (Neural Networks)
 polar         (Polarimetric Radar)
 radar         (Radar Analysis)
 radardem      {RADARSAT DEM}
 radortho      (Radar Ortho)
 satortho      (Satellite Ortho and DEM)
 tapeio        (Tape I/O)
 terrain       (Terrain Analysis)
 vector        (Vector Utilities)
Proper names are commonly used as keywords:

Keywords reflect those things mainly dealt with by the program:

 scatterplot   noise           speckle
 polygon       tape            tablet
 graticule
Keywords reflect what the program does:

 report        merge           classification
 transfer      transform       print
 filter        utility         calibration
 correction    create          classification
 enhancement   decorrelation   stretch
 principal     component       analysis
 despeckling   convert         interactive
 rotate        interpolation   gridding
 calculate     registration    orthorectification
 supervised    unsupervised    clustering
 print         map             average
 rewind
Keywords reflect the data or image type(s) utilized by the program:

 bitmap        image           signature
 vector        DEM             stereo
 airphoto      epipolar        projection
 SAR           radiometric     GCP
 eosat         landsat         lgsowg
 spotimage     header          histogram
 LUT           PCT             eigenchannels
 drainage      network         watershed
 erdas         foreign         BSQ
 BIL           BIP             interleaved
 AES           TIROS           NOAA
 AVHRR         PAMAP           dipix
 georeferenced PCX             postscript
 eps           uncorrected     geocoded
 TIFF
Remember that keywords are case-insensitive. Remember also that the smaller the word you search on, the more "hits" you are likely to receive. For example, searching for "ortho" will find all occurrences of orthorectification and orthorectify. However, searching for "rectify" will find orthorectify, but not orthorectification.
