About me

Fatwa and his beloved wife

Fatwa Ramdani was born in Balikpapan, Indonesia, on June 19. He received the B.Sci degrees in Geography (Remote Sensing and GIS Application in Earth and Land Observation) from University of Indonesia, Depok, Indonesia, in 2007, and Master of Science degree in Geo-environmental Science from Tohoku University, Japan in 2011 and now he is doing his Integrated Doctoral Program degree in Geo-environment (Land Assessment and Evaluation towards environmental Sustainability) Tohoku University, Japan. From 2007 to 2009, he was active in Geo-spatial work in Indonesia as Geo-spatial Manager, with the Indonesian Governmental Agency or with Non-Government Organization. His main interests include the remote sensing of vegetation, analysis of land use land cover changes and the process behind, unmanned aerial vehicle for aerial photogrammetry, and land evaluation and assessment for land sustainability. In June 2010 he was awarded as the best presenter in International Geo-science Conference, Bulgaria, Europe. He is member of Tohoku Geographical Association, Japan Geoscience Union, Association of American Geographer (AAG), and IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society.

On weekends he usually go sightseeing to places of historic and or places that have beautiful natural scenery around the Tohoku Region, Japan as an act of gratitude for all the blessings from ALLAH SWT.

  2. Dear Fatwa,
    Have you tried application of the first three PPS index transformations (PPSG,PPSB,PPSW) to any of your Landast ETM or ETM+ images and compared them with Tasseled Cap (Brightness,Greennesss and Wetness) transformations applied to the same image/s?
    If not, and if you are interested, then :
    ^ Choose an image/sub-scene that containes water, agricultural crop and forest.

    ^ To apply the transformations use the as published eigenvectors given in table 2 of “Motivation, development and validation of a new spectral greenness index:
    A spectral dimension related to foliage projective cover” (Apply these in the same way that you would apply the Huang Tasseled Cap eigenvectors)

    ^ apply the angular conversions using published the spectral focus

    ^ Use colour stretches indicated in caption of figure 6.

    I would be interested in how the transformations compare. For example, I would be interested in your interpretations of a 3-layer Tasseled Cap transformed image compared to a 3-layer PPS transformed image.

    Contact me by email if you need more information on how to apply PPS transformations. I have not worked in field of Remote Sensing since I completed that paper. I have never applied PPS index transformations to any images outside of Queensland Australia.

    Regards,
    Trevor Moffiet

  3. Dear Reis,

    I do really sorry for late reply, because I was in the field work trip last month. I sent my paper to your email. Thx

    Fatwa
