This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An up-to-date, detailed set of notes covering all aspects of NOAA AVHRR data collection, pre-processing, analysis and application. Includes many FTP sites, e-mail addresses and URL locations. Some chapters address particular aspects of the NOAA AVHRR system, such as radiometric calibration and geometric correction, while others provide general information of interest to any remote sensing study, such as radiative transfer modelling and atmospheric correction. The publication of a book that covers all important aspects of the treatment and understanding of the data in one volume makes the work a convenient, informative `recipe book' that is sure to become a favourite for all users of NOAA AVHRR data.

Download or read book Possible Measurement Errors in Calibrated AVHRR Data written by Robert Paul D'Entremont and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visible and infrared meteorological satellite data are a primary source of global cloud observations. Such data are calibrated in order to provide its users with a method for converting from 'raw' measurements, called counts, to physically sensible measurements such as albedo or brightness temperature. This report describes the procedure for converting National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (NOAA AVHRR) raw counts to albedos and brightness temperatures. This procedure involves the use of 'calibration coefficients' that help define the relationship between the raw counts and the physical measurements they represent. Such relationships are referred to as 'look-up-tables'. In theory, calibration coefficients (and therefore look-up tables) do not change noticeably from one scanline of satellite data to the next. This makes feasible the generation of a constant look-up table that can be used over long periods of time for all data. In practice, calibration coefficients can and often do change from one scan to the next. These changes imply accuracy errors in measured brightness temperatures that are significant for some satellite data analysis algorithms; others are less severely affected. This report addresses the potential errors that can be expected when using constant look-up tables, i.e., by assuming that sensor calibration does not change from one scanline to the next.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Interregional Expert Meeting on the Use of Satellite Imaging RADAR and Thematic Mapping in Natural Resources Development, organized by the Economic and Social Develop ment Center of the German Foundation for International Development - DSE - in co-operation with the United Nations Department of Technical Co-operation for Develop ment - DTCD - was held in Berlin (West) from 21 November to 4 December 1984. As a result of this meeting, the participants made the following recommendations: A. REMOTE SENSING SYSTEMS AND AVAILABILITY OF DATA 1. Acquisition Platforms and their Continuity The participants expressed concern over the insecurity which clouds the future of orbital remote sensing platforms - the U. S. Landsat series should be continued, if at all possible. The planned initial ten-year operational lifetime of SPOT is en couraging and received support. ESA/ERS 1, Japanl J-ERS 1 and Canada's RADARSAT programmes should be given full imple mentation commitment, as soon as possible, and plans should be developed for system continuity. The participants noted that development of national and regional remote sensing programmes in developing nations, and establishment and upgrading of appropriate ground receiving stations for these systems depends critically on the prospect of platform continuity. vii SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING FOR RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT 2. Future Developments (a) Future developments in microwave remote sensing from space should be encouraged so as to circumvent, among others, the problem of cloud cover and to facilitate extension of application areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of Earth-observing satellites has revolutionised the gathering of oceanographic data and the visualisation of oceanographic processes. This course was for postgraduate students and young post-doctoral research workers and covered the instruments and satellite systems used to gather visible, infrared and microwave data over the oceans. It also covered the uses of these various types of data to provide information about ocean colour, biological productivity, surface temperature, currents and circulation patterns, near-surface windspeeds, bottom topography and the geoid.
