To measure the characteristics of an object from a distance, the technique of remote sensing is used. By this technique we ca collect all information about an object without making any physical contact with that object. 3D SPIHT algorithm to code objects with arbitrary shape and adds spatial and temporal scalability features to it. It keeps important features of the original 3D SPIHT coder such as compression efficiency, full embeddedness and rate scalability. Set Partitioning in hierarchical

... ees (SPIHT) algorithm to remote sensing images, using a wavelet decomposition method. The wavelet decomposition is accomplished with wavelet filters implemented with the lifting method. Result show that our algorithm with filters performs a well and better in lossless coding systems using 3D SPIHT and wavelet transforms on remote sensing images
