چکیده

A comparison of topographic correction methods is conducted for Landsat-5 TM, Landsat-7 ETM+, and SPOT-5 imagery from different geographic areas and seasons. Three successful and known methods are compared: the semi-empirical C correction, the Gamma correction depending on the incidence and exitance angles, and a modified Minnaert approach. In the majority of cases the modified Minnaert approach performed best, but no method is superior in all cases.

Evaluation and Comparison of Topographic Correction Models Is Applied on the Series Landsat Images Using Spectrometery Data

The effect of topography on the radiance record in satellite image, probably reduce the accuracy of algorithem impliementation on the images . Therefore, to reduce the effect of topography, various correction models based on interaction between light and object needs to be defined. This research introduces lombertin correction model (Cosine model) and non_lombertin correction model (mineart and...

A Model of Topographic Correction and Reflectance Retrieval for Optical Satellite Data in Forested Areas

Topographic correction is a necessary step of pre-process in the remote sensing application in rugged terrain. Most of traditional topographic correction methods are empirical and statistical based. These methods have the advantage of facility; however they also have some disadvantages, such as lack of comprehensive physical analysis, subjectivity in operation, separation of atmospheric correct...

A comparison of illumination geometry-based methods for topographic correction of QuickBird images of an undulant area

The high spatial resolution of QuickBird satellite images makes it possible to show spatial variability at fine details. However, the effect of topography-induced illumination variations become more evident, even in moderately sloped areas. Based on a high resolution (1 m) digital elevation model generated with high-frequency real-time kinematic global position system measurements, this study a...

The effect of atmospheric and topographic correction methods on land cover classification accuracy

Mapping of vegetation in mountain areas based on remote sensing is obstructed by atmospheric and topographic distortions. A variety of atmospheric and topographic correction methods has been proposed to minimize atmospheric and topographic effects and should in principle lead to a better land cover classification. Only a limited number of atmospheric and topographic combinations has been tested...

A comparative study of quantitative mapping methods for bias correction of ERA5 reanalysis precipitation data

This study evaluates the ability of different quantitative mapping (QM) methods as a bias correction technique for ERA5 reanalysis precipitation data. Climate type and geographical location can affect the performance of the bias correction method due to differences in precipitation characteristics. For this purpose, ERA5 reanalysis precipitation data for the years 1989-2019 for 10 selected syno...
