  The fusion of high-spectral/low-spatial resolution multispectral and low-spectral/high-spatial resolution panchromatic satellite images is a very useful technique in various applications of remote sensing. Recently, some studies showed that a wavelet-based image fusion method provides high quality spectral content in fused images. However, most wavelet-based methods yield fused results with spatial resolution that is less than that obtained via the Brovey, IHS, and PCA fusion methods. In this paper, we introduce a new method based on a curvelet transform, which represents edges better than wavelets. Since edges play a fundamental role in image representation, one effective means to enhance spatial resolution is to enhance the edges. The curvelet-based image fusion method provides richer information in the spatial and spectral domains simultaneously. We performed Landsat ETM+ image fusion and found that the proposed method provides optimum fusion results.
