## Abstract (arXiv)

This research presents a comprehensive assessment of pan-sharpening techniques for satellite imagery, focusing on the critical aspects of spectral fidelity and spatial enhancement. Motivated by the need for informed algorithm selection in remote sensing, A novel cascaded and structured evaluation framework has been proposed with a detailed comparative analysis of existing methodologies. The research findings underscore the intricate trade-offs between spectral accuracy of about 88% with spatial resolution enhancement. The research sheds light on the practical implications of pan-sharpening and emphasizes the significance of both spectral and spatial aspects in remote sensing applications. Various pan-sharpening algorithms were systematically employed to provide a holistic view of their performance, contributing to a deeper understanding of their capabilities and limitations.
