Abstrakt: The development and practical application of new mathematical methods of processing, image analysis and pattern recognition has significant prospects for mapping the Earth from space. In the paper, it is proposed to use the fractal model of the surface contamination distribution, previously developed by the authors, for the analysis of color multispectral satellite images on the example of the territory of the Polar Urals. The research has shown the following: 1) The brightness distribution on remote sensing snapshot has a fractal character. 2) The values of fractal dimension of the territory images in different spectral ranges significantly differ. 3) The hierarchy of geomorphological structures in the range of 13-1700 m may be considered as self-similar. Thus, the proposed method of calculating the fractal dimension value of the snapshot may become one of the informative attributes for remote sensing images interpretation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
