نویسنده
چکیده
Unmixing method for estimation of mixing ratio of the components of which the pixel in concern consists based on inversion theory is proposed together with its application to sea ice estimation method with satellite based visible to near infrared radiometer data. Through comparative study on the different unmixing methods with remote sensing satellite imagery data, it is found that the proposed inversion theory based unmixing method is superior to the other methods. Also it is found that the proposed unmixing method is applicable to sea ice concentration estimations. Keywords—Unmixing; Inversion theory; Category decomposition; Remote Sensing

[1] The Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument was launched in October 2011 on the satellite now known as the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership. VIIRS was designed to improve upon the capabilities of the operational Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer and provide observation continuity with NASA’s Earth Observing System’s Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradi...
متن کاملSea and Freshwater Ice Concentration from VIIRS on Suomi NPP and the Future JPSS Satellites
Information on ice is important for shipping, weather forecasting, and climate monitoring. Historically, ice cover has been detected and ice concentration has been measured using relatively low-resolution space-based passive microwave data. This study presents an algorithm to detect ice and estimate ice concentration in clear-sky areas over the ocean and inland lakes and rivers using high-resol...
متن کاملBohai Sea Ice Parameter Estimation Based on Thermodynamic Ice Model and Earth Observation Data
We estimate two essential sea ice parameters—namely, sea ice concentration (SIC) and sea ice thickness (SIT)—for the Bohai Sea using a combination of a thermodynamic sea ice model and Earth observation (EO) data from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and microwave radiometer. We compare the SIC and SIT estimation results with in-situ measurements conducted in the study area and estimates based on ...

Monte Carlo based non-linear mixel (mixed pixel) model of visible to near infrared radiometer of earth observation satellite imagery is proposed. Through comparative studies with actual real earth observation satellite imagery data between conventional linear mixel model and the proposed non-linear mixel model, it is found that the proposed mixel model represents the pixels in concern much prec...
