Retrieving Canopy Structure from Hyperspectral Multi- Angular Satellite Data
The angular dependence of satellite-measured canopy reflectance has been shown to contain information on the structure of vegetated surfaces. The aim of the research was to explore the angular variability of spectral indices and to compare the suitability of angular indices and traditional vegetation indices for retrieval of forest structural attributes using Chris/PROBA data. With spruce the l...
متن کاملRetrieval of Biophysical Crop Variables from Multi-Angular Canopy Spectroscopy
The future German Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program (EnMAP) mission, due to launch in late 2019, will deliver high resolution hyperspectral data from space and will thus contribute to a better monitoring of the dynamic surface of the earth. Exploiting the satellite’s ±30◦ across-track pointing capabilities will allow for the collection of hyperspectral time-series of homogeneous qualit...
متن کاملOff-Nadir Hyperspectral Sensing for Estimation of Vertical Profile of Leaf Chlorophyll Content within Wheat Canopies
Monitoring the vertical profile of leaf chlorophyll (Chl) content within winter wheat canopies is of significant importance for revealing the real nutritional status of the crop. Information on the vertical profile of Chl content is not accessible to nadir-viewing remote or proximal sensing. Off-nadir or multi-angle sensing would provide effective means to detect leaf Chl content in different v...

متن کاملThe Potential of Forest Biomass Inversion Based on Vegetation Indices Using Multi-Angle CHRIS/PROBA Data
Multi-angle remote sensing can either be regarded as an added source of uncertainty for variable retrieval, or as a source of additional information, which enhances variable retrieval compared to traditional single-angle observation. However, the magnitude of these angular and band effects for forest structure parameters is difficult to quantify. We used the Discrete Anisotropic Radiative Trans...
