Continental-scale validation of MODIS-based and LEDAPS Landsat ETM+ atmospheric correction methods
The potential of Landsat data processing to provide systematic continental scale products has been demonstrated by several projects including the NASA Webenabled Landsat Data (WELD) project. The recent free availability of Landsat data increases the need for robust and efficient atmospheric correction algorithms. This study compares the accuracy of two Landsat atmospheric correction methods: a ...
متن کاملAbsolute Calibration of Optical Satellite Sensors Using Libya 4 Pseudo Invariant Calibration Site
The objective of this paper is to report the improvements in an empirical absolute calibration model developed at South Dakota State University using Libya 4 (+28.55°, +23.39°) pseudo invariant calibration site (PICS). The approach was based on use of the Terra MODIS as the radiometer to develop an absolute calibration model for the spectral channels covered by this instrument from visible to s...
متن کاملSpectral band difference effects on radiometric cross-calibration between multiple satellite sensors in the Landsat solar-reflective spectral domain
This paper reports on an investigation of radiometric calibration errors due to differences in spectral response functions between satellite sensors when attempting cross-calibration based on near-simultaneous imaging of common ground targets in analogous spectral bands. Five Earth observation sensors on three satellite platforms were included on the basis of their overpass times being within 4...
متن کاملFeasibility and Accuracy of Modis 250m Imagery for Forest Disturbance Monitoring
Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) images were compared to Terra-MODIS imagery for detecting forest changes in northern Maine’s industrial forest. Advantages of MODIS imagery compared to medium spatial resolution imagery, like Landsat TM or ETM+, are its temporal frequency, its low data volume to cover large forest regions and, the data are free to download over the Internet. The obje...
متن کاملRadiometric cross-calibration of the Landsat-7 ETM+ and Landsat-5 TM sensors based on tandem data sets
Early in its mission, the Landsat-7 spacecraft was temporarily placed in a ‘‘tandem’’ orbit very close to that of the Landsat-5 spacecraft in order to facilitate the establishment of sensor calibration continuity between the Landsat-7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) and Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper (TM) sensors. The key period for the tandem configuration was June 1–4, 1999, during which hund...
