Investigation on several basic interpolation methods for the use in remote sensing application

Image from satellite is an example of remote sensing data. However, when the resolution of the available satellite image is too coarse and does not meet the required resolution, a process known as image re-sampling need to be employed, so a higher resolution version of the image could be obtained. I...
