1 Optical Theory Basics - 2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrieval Jose Moreno 3 September 2007, Lecture D1Lb2

2 OPTICAL THEORY-FUNDAMENTALS (2) Radiation laws: definitions and nomenclature Sources of radiation in natural environment in the optical domain Interaction of radiation with matter in the optical domain Illumination and observation geometries Radiative transfer in the optical domain General solutions for the radiation transfer in the coupled earth-surface and through the atmosphere Derivation of surface reflectance from measured satellite radiances Spectral information: signatures of natural objects Spatial information: uniformity, textures and scales Temporal information: land surface dynamics at multiple scales Information retrieval: from spectral indices to model inversion Overview of applications 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 2

3 Derivation of surface reflectance from measured satellite radiance 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 3

4 Pre-processing steps: - Radiometric calibration - Noise removal - Cloud screening - Geometric correction - Atmospheric correction - Database management 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 4

5 RADIOMETRIC CALIBRATION Pre-launch radiometric calibration to traceable standard (accepted reference) Post launch calibration campaigns to maintain/monitoring in flight calibration (vicarious) On-board calibration (both radiometric and spectral) 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 5

6 CLOUD SCREENING - Very dependent on the available spectral information - Many different algorithms (from simple thresholds up to sophisticate techniques) 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 6

7 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 7

8 SATELLITE SIGNAL MODELLING 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 8

9 The atmosphere modifies the radiation measured by optical sensors: Aerosols and gases present optical activity at VIS/NIR/SWIR. Reflectance increases/decreases depending on the wavelength. Image loses contrast. Removing the atmospheric influence from remote sensing data is necessary before the data exploitation 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 9

10 Surface reflectance retrieval TOA radiance modeled assuming Lambertian reflectance for the target: Analytically invertible to retrieve ρ s. Removal of adjacency effects 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 10

11 Flat Lambertian areas: INVERSION OF SURFACE REFLECTANCE Non-Lambertian areas with topographic structure: - no analytic inversion under approximations - decoupling 'effective' reflectances and 'effective geometric terms required for environment - multistep numerical procedure required for inversion - multiple reflection terms only significant for high reflectance surroundings 3 September 2007 D1Lb2 Atmospheric corrections and parameter retrievals Jose Moreno 11
