Geographic information -- Imagery sensor models for geopositioning -- Part 2: SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar

This Technical Specification supports exploitation of remotely sensed images. It specifies the sensor models and metadata for geopositioning images remotely sensed by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), LIght Detection And Ranging (lidar), and Sound Navigation And Ranging (sonar) sensors. The specification also defines the metadata needed for the aerial triangulation of airborne and spaceborne images. This Technical Specification specifies the detailed information that shall be provided for a sensor description of SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar sensors with the associated physical and geometric information necessary to rigorously construct a Physical Sensor Model. For the case where precise geoposition information is needed, this Technical Specification identifies the mathematical formulae for rigorously constructing Physical Sensor Models that relate two-dimensional image space to threedimensional ground space and the calculation of the associated propagated error. This Technical Specification does not specify either how users derive geoposition data or the format or content of the data the users generate.

Introduction
The purpose of this Technical Specification is to specify the geolocation information that an imagery data
provider shall supply in order for the user to be able to find the earth location of the data using a detailed
physical sensor model for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Light Detection And Ranging (lidar) and
Sound Navigation And Ranging (sonar). The intent is to standardize sensor descriptions and specify the
minimum geolocation metadata requirements for data providers and geopositioning imagery systems.
Observations in this document are the generic meaning of the word; observations are not in the meaning
of ISO 19156 observations.
Vast amounts of data from imaging systems have been collected, processed and distributed by government
mapping and remote sensing agencies and by commercial data vendors. In order for this data to be useful
in extraction of geographic information, further processing of the data are needed. Geopositioning, which
determines the ground coordinates of an object from image coordinates, is a fundamental processing
step. Because of the diversity of sensor types and the lack of a common sensor model standard, data
from different producers may contain different parametric information, lack parameters required to
describe the sensor that produces the data, or lack ancillary information necessary for geopositioning
and analysing the data. Often, a separate software package must be developed to deal with data from
each individual sensor or data producer. Standard sensor models and geolocation metadata allow
agencies or vendors to develop generalized software products that are applicable to data from multiple
data producers or from multiple sensors. With such standards, different producers can describe the
geolocation information of their data in the same way, thus promoting interoperability of data between
application systems and facilitating data exchange.
Part 1 provided a location model and metadata relevant to all sensors. It also included metadata specific
to whiskbroom, pushbroom, and frame sensors, and some metadata for Synthetic Aperture Radar
(SAR) sensors. In addition, it provided metadata for functional fit geopositioning, whether the function
was part of a correspondence model or a true replacement model. It also provided a schema for these
metadata elements. Comments on Part 1 stated that metadata needed to be specified for additional
sensors. The technology of such sensors has now become sufficiently mature that standardization is
now possible. This Technical Specification extends the specification of the set of metadata elements
required for geolocation by providing physical sensor models for LIght Detection And Ranging (lidar)
and SOund Navigation And Ranging (sonar), and it presents a more detailed set of elements for SAR.
This Technical Specification also defines the metadata needed for the aerial triangulation of airborne
and spaceborne images. This Technical Specification also provides a schema for all of these metadata
elements.

Part 2:
SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar
1 Scope
This Technical Specification supports exploitation of remotely sensed images. It specifies the sensor
models and metadata for geopositioning images remotely sensed by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR),
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), LIght Detection And Ranging (lidar), and SOund
Navigation And Ranging (sonar) sensors. The specification also defines the metadata needed for the
aerial triangulation of airborne and spaceborne images.
This Technical Specification specifies the detailed information that shall be provided for a sensor
description of SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar sensors with the associated physical and geometric
information necessary to rigorously construct a Physical Sensor Model. For the case where precise
geoposition information is needed, this Technical Specification identifies the mathematical formulae
for rigorously constructing Physical Sensor Models that relate two-dimensional image space to three-
dimensional ground space and the calculation of the associated propagated error.
This Technical Specification does not specify either how users derive geoposition data or the format or
content of the data the users generate.
2 Conformance
This Technical Specification specifies 5 conformance classes. There is one conformance class for
each type of sensor. Any set of geopositioning information claiming conformance to this Technical
Specification shall satisfy the requirements for at least one conformance class as specified in Table 1.
The requirements for each class are shown by the presence of an X in the boxes for all clauses in the
application test suite (ATS) required for that class. If the requirement is conditional, the box contains a
C. The conditions are defined in the corresponding UML models.

[SOURCE: ISO/IEC 2382-17:1999, 17.02.12]
4.8
azimuth resolution
resolution (4.60) in the cross-range direction
Note 1 to entry: This is usually measured in terms of the impulse response of the SAR sensor (4.66) and processing
system. It is a function of the size of the synthetic aperture, or alternatively the dwell time (e.g. larger aperture -
> longer dwell time - > better resolution).

wavelength change resulting from relative motion of source and detector
Note 1 to entry: In the SAR context, it is the frequency shift imposed on a radar signal due to relative motion
between the transmitter (4.79) and the object being illuminated.
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.20]
4.17

total angular extent over which the field of view (FOV) (4.20) may be positioned
Note 1 to entry: The field of regard is the area that is potentially able to be viewed by a system at an instant in
time. It is determined by the system’s FOV and the range (4.54) of directions in which the system is able to point.
[SOURCE: Adapted from the Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.20
field of view
FOV
instantaneous region seen by a sensor (4.66), provided in angular measure
Note 1 to entry: In the airborne case, this would be swath (4.75) width for a linear array, ground footprint for an
area array, and for a whiskbroom scanner it refers to the swath width.
[SOURCE: Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.21
first return
first reflected signal that is detected by a 3D imaging system, time of flight (TOF) type, for a given
sampling position and a given emitted pulse

ISO/TS 19130-2:2014(E)

4.23
geiger mode
photon counting mode for lidar (4.40) systems, where the detector is biased and becomes sensitive to
individual photons
Note 1 to entry: These detectors exist in the form of arrays and are bonded with electronic circuitry. The electronic
circuitry produces a measurement corresponding to the time at which the current was generated; resulting in a
direct time-of-flight measurement. A lidar that employs this detector technology typically illuminates a large scene
with a single pulse. The direct time-of-flight measurements are then combined with platform location/attitude
(4.6) data along with pointing information to produce a three-dimensional product of the illuminated scene of
interest. Additional processing is applied which removes existing noise present in the data to produce a visually
exploitable data set.
[SOURCE: Adapted from Albota 2002]
4.24
geodetic coordinate system
coordinate system in which position is specified by geodetic latitude, geodetic longitude and (in the
three-dimensional case) ellipsoidal height
[SOURCE: ISO 19111:2007, 4.18]
4.25
geodetic datum
datum (4.12) describing the relationship of a two- or three-dimensional coordinate system to the Earth
Note 1 to entry: In most cases, the geodetic datum includes an ellipsoid description (ISO/TS 19130:2010)
Note 2 to entry: The term and this Technical Specification may be applicable to some other celestial bodies.

reference system. Depth equals negative height.
4.27
geographic information
information concerning phenomena implicitly or explicitly associated with a location relative to the
Earth
[SOURCE: ISO 19101:2002, 4.16]
4.28

ISO/TS 19130-2:2014(E)

4.30
hydrophone
component of the sonar system which receives the sound echo and converts it to an electric
signal
4.31
heave

[SOURCE: IHO Hydrographic Dictionary S-32, Fifth Edition]
4.32
hydrographic swath
strip or lane on the ground scanned by a multi-beam sounder when the survey vessel proceeds
along its course
[SOURCE: IHO Hydrographic Dictionary S-32, Fifth Edition]
4.33
image coordinates
coordinates with respect to a Cartesian coordinate system of an image
Note 1 to entry: The image coordinates can be in pixels or in a measure of length (linear measure).
4.34
image formation
process by which an image is generated from collected Phase History Data (4.48) in a SAR system
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.51]
4.35
incident angle
vertical angle between the line from the detected element to the sensor (4.66) and the local surface
normal (tangent plane normal)
Note 1 to entry: It is approximately the complement of the grazing angle (4.29).
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.57, modified — Note 1 to entry has been added.]
4.36
instantaneous field of view
instantaneous region seen by a single detector element, measured in angular space
[SOURCE: Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.37
intensity
power per unit solid angle from a point source into a particular direction
Note 1 to entry: Typically for lidar (4.40), sufficient calibration has not been done to calculate absolute intensity, so
relative intensity is usually reported. In linear mode (4.41) systems, this value is typically provided as an integer,
resulting from a mapping of the return’s (4.62) signal power to an integer value via a lookup table.
4.38
last return
last reflected signal that is detected by a 3D imaging system, time-of-flight (TOF) type, for a given

4.39
layover
visual effect in SAR images of ambiguity among returns (4.62) from scatterers at different heights that
fall into the same range-Doppler-time bin
Note 1 to entry: The effect makes buildings “lay over” onto the ground toward the sensor (4.66)velocity vector
(4.81), akin to perspective views in projective imagery.
4.40
lidar
light detection and ranging
system consisting of 1) a photon source (frequently, but not necessarily, a laser), 2) a photon detection
system, 3) a timing circuit, and 4) optics for both the source and the receiver (4.59) that uses emitted
laser light to measure ranges (4.54) to and/or properties of solid objects, gases, or particulates in the
atmosphere
Note 1 to entry: Time of flight (TOF) lidars use short laser pulses and precisely record the time each laser pulse
was emitted and the time each reflected return(s) (4.62) is received in order to calculate the distance(s) to the
scatterer(s) encountered by the emitted pulse. For topographic lidar (4.80), these time-of-flight measurements
are then combined with precise platform location/attitude (4.6) data along with pointing data to produce a three-
dimensional product of the illuminated scene of interest.
4.41
linear mode
lidar (4.40) system in which output photocurrent is proportional to the input optical incident intensity
(4.37)
Note 1 to entry: A lidar system which employs this technology typically uses processing techniques to develop the
time-of-flight measurements from the full waveform that is reflected from the targets in the illuminated scene of
interest. These time-of-flight measurements are then combined with precise platform location/attitude (4.6) data
along with pointing data to produce a three-dimensional product of the illuminated scene of interest.

Introduction
The purpose of this Technical Specification is to specify the geolocation information that an imagery data
provider shall supply in order for the user to be able to find the earth location of the data using a detailed
physical sensor model for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Light Detection And Ranging (lidar) and
Sound Navigation And Ranging (sonar). The intent is to standardize sensor descriptions and specify the
minimum geolocation metadata requirements for data providers and geopositioning imagery systems.
Observations in this document are the generic meaning of the word; observations are not in the meaning
of ISO 19156 observations.
Vast amounts of data from imaging systems have been collected, processed and distributed by government
mapping and remote sensing agencies and by commercial data vendors. In order for this data to be useful
in extraction of geographic information, further processing of the data are needed. Geopositioning, which
determines the ground coordinates of an object from image coordinates, is a fundamental processing
step. Because of the diversity of sensor types and the lack of a common sensor model standard, data
from different producers may contain different parametric information, lack parameters required to
describe the sensor that produces the data, or lack ancillary information necessary for geopositioning
and analysing the data. Often, a separate software package must be developed to deal with data from
each individual sensor or data producer. Standard sensor models and geolocation metadata allow
agencies or vendors to develop generalized software products that are applicable to data from multiple
data producers or from multiple sensors. With such standards, different producers can describe the
geolocation information of their data in the same way, thus promoting interoperability of data between
application systems and facilitating data exchange.
Part 1 provided a location model and metadata relevant to all sensors. It also included metadata specific
to whiskbroom, pushbroom, and frame sensors, and some metadata for Synthetic Aperture Radar
(SAR) sensors. In addition, it provided metadata for functional fit geopositioning, whether the function
was part of a correspondence model or a true replacement model. It also provided a schema for these
metadata elements. Comments on Part 1 stated that metadata needed to be specified for additional
sensors. The technology of such sensors has now become sufficiently mature that standardization is
now possible. This Technical Specification extends the specification of the set of metadata elements
required for geolocation by providing physical sensor models for LIght Detection And Ranging (lidar)
and SOund Navigation And Ranging (sonar), and it presents a more detailed set of elements for SAR.
This Technical Specification also defines the metadata needed for the aerial triangulation of airborne
and spaceborne images. This Technical Specification also provides a schema for all of these metadata
elements.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 19130-2:2014(E)
Geographic information — Imagery sensor models for
geopositioning —
Part 2:
SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar
1 Scope
This Technical Specification supports exploitation of remotely sensed images. It specifies the sensor
models and metadata for geopositioning images remotely sensed by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR),
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), LIght Detection And Ranging (lidar), and SOund
Navigation And Ranging (sonar) sensors. The specification also defines the metadata needed for the
aerial triangulation of airborne and spaceborne images.
This Technical Specification specifies the detailed information that shall be provided for a sensor
description of SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar sensors with the associated physical and geometric
information necessary to rigorously construct a Physical Sensor Model. For the case where precise
geoposition information is needed, this Technical Specification identifies the mathematical formulae
for rigorously constructing Physical Sensor Models that relate two-dimensional image space to three-
dimensional ground space and the calculation of the associated propagated error.
This Technical Specification does not specify either how users derive geoposition data or the format or
content of the data the users generate.
2 Conformance
This Technical Specification specifies 5 conformance classes. There is one conformance class for
each type of sensor. Any set of geopositioning information claiming conformance to this Technical
Specification shall satisfy the requirements for at least one conformance class as specified in Table 1.
The requirements for each class are shown by the presence of an X in the boxes for all clauses in the
application test suite (ATS) required for that class. If the requirement is conditional, the box contains a
C. The conditions are defined in the corresponding UML models.

attribute
named property of an entity
[SOURCE: ISO/IEC 2382-17:1999, 17.02.12]
4.8
azimuth resolution
resolution (4.60) in the cross-range direction
Note 1 to entry: This is usually measured in terms of the impulse response of the SAR sensor (4.66) and processing
system. It is a function of the size of the synthetic aperture, or alternatively the dwell time (e.g. larger aperture -
> longer dwell time - > better resolution).
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.7]
4.9
beam width

Note 1 to entry: For SAR, beam width is usually measured in radians and is the angular width between two points
that have 1/2 of the power (3 dB below) of the centre of the beam. It is a property of the antenna. Power emitted
outside of this angle is too little to provide a usable return (4.62).
Note 2 to entry: Angle, measured in a horizontal plane, between the directions on either side of the axis at which
the intensity (4.37) of a beam of energy drops to a specified fraction of the value it has on the axis.

wavelength change resulting from relative motion of source and detector
Note 1 to entry: In the SAR context, it is the frequency shift imposed on a radar signal due to relative motion
between the transmitter (4.79) and the object being illuminated.
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.20]
4.17
draught
vertical distance, at any section of a vessel from the surface of the water to the bottom of the keel
[SOURCE: IHO Hydrographic Dictionary, S-32, Fifth Edition]

reference line
[SOURCE: ISO 19111:2007, 4.16]
4.19
field of regard
total angular extent over which the field of view (FOV) (4.20) may be positioned
Note 1 to entry: The field of regard is the area that is potentially able to be viewed by a system at an instant in
time. It is determined by the system’s FOV and the range (4.54) of directions in which the system is able to point.
[SOURCE: Adapted from the Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.20
field of view
FOV
instantaneous region seen by a sensor (4.66), provided in angular measure
Note 1 to entry: In the airborne case, this would be swath (4.75) width for a linear array, ground footprint for an
area array, and for a whiskbroom scanner it refers to the swath width.
[SOURCE: Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.21
first return
first reflected signal that is detected by a 3D imaging system, time of flight (TOF) type, for a given
sampling position and a given emitted pulse

4.23
geiger mode
photon counting mode for lidar (4.40) systems, where the detector is biased and becomes sensitive to
individual photons
Note 1 to entry: These detectors exist in the form of arrays and are bonded with electronic circuitry. The electronic
circuitry produces a measurement corresponding to the time at which the current was generated; resulting in a
direct time-of-flight measurement. A lidar that employs this detector technology typically illuminates a large scene
with a single pulse. The direct time-of-flight measurements are then combined with platform location/attitude
(4.6) data along with pointing information to produce a three-dimensional product of the illuminated scene of
interest. Additional processing is applied which removes existing noise present in the data to produce a visually
exploitable data set.

4.24
geodetic coordinate system
coordinate system in which position is specified by geodetic latitude, geodetic longitude and (in the
three-dimensional case) ellipsoidal height
[SOURCE: ISO 19111:2007, 4.18]
4.25
geodetic datum
datum (4.12) describing the relationship of a two- or three-dimensional coordinate system to the Earth
Note 1 to entry: In most cases, the geodetic datum includes an ellipsoid description (ISO/TS 19130:2010)
Note 2 to entry: The term and this Technical Specification may be applicable to some other celestial bodies.

information concerning phenomena implicitly or explicitly associated with a location relative to the
Earth
[SOURCE: ISO 19101:2002, 4.16]
4.28
geolocating
geopositioning an object using a Physical Sensor Model (4.68) or a True Replacement Model
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.34]
4.29
grazing angle
vertical angle from the local surface tangent plane to the slant range direction (4.56)
Note 1 to entry: It is usually measured at the GRP and approximately the complement of the incident angle (4.35)
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.39, modified — Note 1 to entry has been added.]

4.34
image formation
process by which an image is generated from collected Phase History Data (4.48) in a SAR system
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.51]
4.35
incident angle
vertical angle between the line from the detected element to the sensor (4.66) and the local surface
normal (tangent plane normal)
Note 1 to entry: It is approximately the complement of the grazing angle (4.29).
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.57, modified — Note 1 to entry has been added.]
4.36
instantaneous field of view
instantaneous region seen by a single detector element, measured in angular space
[SOURCE: Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.37
intensity
power per unit solid angle from a point source into a particular direction

Introduction
La présente Spécification technique a pour but de spécifier les informations de géolocalisation qu’un
fournisseur de données d’imagerie doit fournir pour permettre à l’utilisateur de trouver la position
terrestre des données au moyen d’un modèle physique de capteur détaillé pour radar à synthèse
d’ouverture (Synthetic Aperture Radar - SAR), télédétection par laser (LIght Detection And Ranging -
lidar) et sonar (SOund Navigation And Ranging). L’objectif est de normaliser les descriptions des capteurs
et de spécifier les exigences minimales de métadonnées de géolocalisation pour les fournisseurs de
données et les systèmes de géolocalisation d’imagerie. Le terme «observation» dans ce document
s’entend au sens générique du mot, et non au sens donné dans l’ISO 19156.
De grandes quantités de données provenant de systèmes d’imagerie ont été acquises, traitées
et distribuées par des agences gouvernementales de cartographie et de télédétection et par des
fournisseurs de données commerciales. Afin que ces données soient utiles pour l’extraction d’information
géographique, un traitement supplémentaire des données est nécessaire. La géolocalisation, qui
détermine les coordonnées au sol d’un objet à partir des coordonnées d’image, constitue une étape
fondamentale du traitement. En raison de la diversité des types de capteur et de l’absence de modèle
commun de capteur standard, des données de producteurs différents peuvent contenir des informations
paramétriques différentes, ou être dépourvues des paramètres nécessaires à la description du capteur
qui génère les données ou des informations accessoires requises pour la géolocalisation et l’analyse des
données. Il arrive fréquemment qu’il faille élaborer un logiciel spécifique pour traiter les données en
provenance de chaque capteur ou producteur de données. Les standards de modèles de capteurs et de
métadonnées de géolocalisation permettent aux agences ou aux fournisseurs de développer des logiciels
globaux applicables aux données de plusieurs producteurs de données ou de plusieurs capteurs. Sur la
base de ces standards, des producteurs différents peuvent décrire les informations de géolocalisation
de leurs données de la même manière, favorisant ainsi l’interopérabilité des données entre les systèmes
d’application et facilitant l’échange de données.
La Partie 1 fournit un modèle de localisation et des métadonnées concernant tous les capteurs. Elle
comprend également des métadonnées spécifiques aux capteurs à balayage transversal, aux capteurs
en peigne et aux capteurs à trame, et certaines métadonnées pour les capteurs de radar à synthèse
d’ouverture (SAR). De plus, elle fournit les métadonnées de la fonction de géolocalisation par ajustement
fonctionnel, que cette fonction fasse partie d’un modèle de correspondance ou d’un modèle de
remplacement vrai. Elle fournit également un schéma pour ces éléments de métadonnées. Il était stipulé
dans les commentaires sur la Partie 1 que des métadonnées devaient être spécifiées pour d’autres
types de capteurs. La technologie de ces capteurs a maintenant atteint un stade de maturité suffisant
pour que la normalisation soit possible. La présente Spécification technique élargit la spécification de
l’ensemble d’éléments de métadonnées requis pour la géolocalisation en fournissant des modèles de
capteurs physiques pour le lidar et le sonar, et présente un ensemble plus détaillé d’éléments pour le SAR.
Elle définit également les métadonnées nécessaires à l’aérotriangulation des images de télédétection
aériennes et spatiales aéroportées et spatioportées. La présente Spécification technique fournit en
outre un schéma pour tous ces éléments de métadonnées.

Partie 2:
SAR, InSAR, lidar et sonar
1 Domaine d’application
La présente Spécification technique prend en charge l’exploitation des images de télédétection. Elle
spécifie les modèles de capteurs et les métadonnées pour la géolocalisation des images de télédétection
des capteurs radar à synthèse d’ouverture (SAR), radar interférométrique à synthèse d’ouverture
(Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar - InSAR), télédétection par laser (lidar) et sonar. Elle définit
également les métadonnées nécessaires à l’aérotriangulation des images aéroportées et spatioportées.
La présente Spécification technique donne les informations détaillées qui doivent être fournies pour
la description des capteurs de SAR, InSAR, lidar et sonar, ainsi que les informations physiques et
géométriques associées nécessaires à la construction rigoureuse d’un modèle physique de capteur.
Pour les cas où des informations de géolocalisation précises sont nécessaires, la présente Spécification
technique identifie les formules mathématiques permettant la construction rigoureuse de modèles
physiques de capteurs qui mettent en relation l’espace-image en deux dimensions et l’espace-sol en trois
dimensions en intégrant le calcul de l’erreur de propagation associée.
La présente Spécification technique ne précise ni comment les utilisateurs dérivent les données de
géolocalisation, ni le format ou le contenu des données qu’ils génèrent.
2 Conformité
La présente Spécification technique spécifie cinq classes de conformité. Il existe une classe de conformité
pour chaque type de capteur. Chaque ensemble d’informations de géolocalisation revendiquant une
conformité à la présente Spécification technique doit satisfaire aux exigences d’au moins une classe
de conformité comme spécifié dans le Tableau 1. Les exigences de chaque classe sont indiquées par la
présence d’un X dans les cases correspondant à tous les paragraphes de la suite de tests d’application
(application test suite - ATS) requise pour cette classe. Si l’exigence est conditionnelle, un C est inscrit
dans la case. Les conditions sont définies dans le modèle UML correspondant.

Introduction
The purpose of this Technical Specification is to specify the geolocation information that an imagery data
provider shall supply in order for the user to be able to find the earth location of the data using a detailed
physical sensor model for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Light Detection And Ranging (lidar) and
Sound Navigation And Ranging (sonar). The intent is to standardize sensor descriptions and specify the
minimum geolocation metadata requirements for data providers and geopositioning imagery systems.
Observations in this document are the generic meaning of the word; observations are not in the meaning
of ISO 19156 observations.
Vast amounts of data from imaging systems have been collected, processed and distributed by government
mapping and remote sensing agencies and by commercial data vendors. In order for this data to be useful
in extraction of geographic information, further processing of the data are needed. Geopositioning, which
determines the ground coordinates of an object from image coordinates, is a fundamental processing
step. Because of the diversity of sensor types and the lack of a common sensor model standard, data
from different producers may contain different parametric information, lack parameters required to
describe the sensor that produces the data, or lack ancillary information necessary for geopositioning
and analysing the data. Often, a separate software package must be developed to deal with data from
each individual sensor or data producer. Standard sensor models and geolocation metadata allow
agencies or vendors to develop generalized software products that are applicable to data from multiple
data producers or from multiple sensors. With such standards, different producers can describe the
geolocation information of their data in the same way, thus promoting interoperability of data between
application systems and facilitating data exchange.
Part 1 provided a location model and metadata relevant to all sensors. It also included metadata specific
to whiskbroom, pushbroom, and frame sensors, and some metadata for Synthetic Aperture Radar
(SAR) sensors. In addition, it provided metadata for functional fit geopositioning, whether the function
was part of a correspondence model or a true replacement model. It also provided a schema for these
metadata elements. Comments on Part 1 stated that metadata needed to be specified for additional
sensors. The technology of such sensors has now become sufficiently mature that standardization is
now possible. This Technical Specification extends the specification of the set of metadata elements
required for geolocation by providing physical sensor models for LIght Detection And Ranging (lidar)
and SOund Navigation And Ranging (sonar), and it presents a more detailed set of elements for SAR.
This Technical Specification also defines the metadata needed for the aerial triangulation of airborne
and spaceborne images. This Technical Specification also provides a schema for all of these metadata
elements.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 19130-2:2014(E)
Geographic information — Imagery sensor models for
geopositioning —
Part 2:
SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar
1 Scope
This Technical Specification supports exploitation of remotely sensed images. It specifies the sensor
models and metadata for geopositioning images remotely sensed by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR),
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), LIght Detection And Ranging (lidar), and SOund
Navigation And Ranging (sonar) sensors. The specification also defines the metadata needed for the
aerial triangulation of airborne and spaceborne images.
This Technical Specification specifies the detailed information that shall be provided for a sensor
description of SAR, InSAR, lidar and sonar sensors with the associated physical and geometric
information necessary to rigorously construct a Physical Sensor Model. For the case where precise
geoposition information is needed, this Technical Specification identifies the mathematical formulae
for rigorously constructing Physical Sensor Models that relate two-dimensional image space to three-
dimensional ground space and the calculation of the associated propagated error.
This Technical Specification does not specify either how users derive geoposition data or the format or
content of the data the users generate.
2 Conformance
This Technical Specification specifies 5 conformance classes. There is one conformance class for
each type of sensor. Any set of geopositioning information claiming conformance to this Technical
Specification shall satisfy the requirements for at least one conformance class as specified in Table 1.
The requirements for each class are shown by the presence of an X in the boxes for all clauses in the
application test suite (ATS) required for that class. If the requirement is conditional, the box contains a
C. The conditions are defined in the corresponding UML models.

echoed from objects in the water
4.3
adjustable model parameters
model parameters that can be refined using available additional information, such as ground control
points, to improve or enhance modeling corrections
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.2]

4.7
attribute
named property of an entity
[SOURCE: ISO/IEC 2382-17:1999, 17.02.12]
4.8
azimuth resolution
resolution (4.60) in the cross-range direction
Note 1 to entry: This is usually measured in terms of the impulse response of the SAR sensor (4.66) and processing
system. It is a function of the size of the synthetic aperture, or alternatively the dwell time (e.g. larger aperture -
> longer dwell time - > better resolution).
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.7]
4.9
beam width
useful angular width of the beam of electromagnetic energy
Note 1 to entry: For SAR, beam width is usually measured in radians and is the angular width between two points
that have 1/2 of the power (3 dB below) of the centre of the beam. It is a property of the antenna. Power emitted
outside of this angle is too little to provide a usable return (4.62).
Note 2 to entry: Angle, measured in a horizontal plane, between the directions on either side of the axis at which
the intensity (4.37) of a beam of energy drops to a specified fraction of the value it has on the axis.

parameter or set of parameters that define the position of the origin, the scale, and the orientation of a
coordinate system
[SOURCE: ISO 19111:2007, 4.14]

depression angle
vertical angle from the platform horizontal plane to the slant range direction (4.56), usually measured
at the ARP (4.4)

field of regard
total angular extent over which the field of view (FOV) (4.20) may be positioned
Note 1 to entry: The field of regard is the area that is potentially able to be viewed by a system at an instant in

[SOURCE: Adapted from the Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.20
field of view
FOV
instantaneous region seen by a sensor (4.66), provided in angular measure
Note 1 to entry: In the airborne case, this would be swath (4.75) width for a linear array, ground footprint for an
area array, and for a whiskbroom scanner it refers to the swath width.

4.21
first return
first reflected signal that is detected by a 3D imaging system, time of flight (TOF) type, for a given
sampling position and a given emitted pulse

4.23
geiger mode
photon counting mode for lidar (4.40) systems, where the detector is biased and becomes sensitive to
individual photons
Note 1 to entry: These detectors exist in the form of arrays and are bonded with electronic circuitry. The electronic
circuitry produces a measurement corresponding to the time at which the current was generated; resulting in a
direct time-of-flight measurement. A lidar that employs this detector technology typically illuminates a large scene
with a single pulse. The direct time-of-flight measurements are then combined with platform location/attitude
(4.6) data along with pointing information to produce a three-dimensional product of the illuminated scene of
interest. Additional processing is applied which removes existing noise present in the data to produce a visually
exploitable data set.

4.24
geodetic coordinate system
coordinate system in which position is specified by geodetic latitude, geodetic longitude and (in the
three-dimensional case) ellipsoidal height
[SOURCE: ISO 19111:2007, 4.18]
4.25
geodetic datum
datum (4.12) describing the relationship of a two- or three-dimensional coordinate system to the Earth
Note 1 to entry: In most cases, the geodetic datum includes an ellipsoid description (ISO/TS 19130:2010)
Note 2 to entry: The term and this Technical Specification may be applicable to some other celestial bodies.

information concerning phenomena implicitly or explicitly associated with a location relative to the
Earth
[SOURCE: ISO 19101:2002, 4.16]
4.28
geolocating
geopositioning an object using a Physical Sensor Model (4.68) or a True Replacement Model
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.34]
4.29
grazing angle
vertical angle from the local surface tangent plane to the slant range direction (4.56)
Note 1 to entry: It is usually measured at the GRP and approximately the complement of the incident angle (4.35)

image formation
process by which an image is generated from collected Phase History Data (4.48) in a SAR system
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.51]
4.35
incident angle
vertical angle between the line from the detected element to the sensor (4.66) and the local surface
normal (tangent plane normal)
Note 1 to entry: It is approximately the complement of the grazing angle (4.29).
[SOURCE: ISO/TS 19130:2010, 4.57, modified — Note 1 to entry has been added.]

[SOURCE: Manual of Photogrammetry]
4.37
intensity
power per unit solid angle from a point source into a particular direction
Note 1 to entry: Typically for lidar (4.40), sufficient calibration has not been done to calculate absolute intensity, so
relative intensity is usually reported. In linear mode (4.41) systems, this value is typically provided as an integer,
resulting from a mapping of the return’s (4.62) signal power to an integer value via a lookup table.
4.38
last return
