Evaluating an enhanced vegetation condition index (VCI) based

Drought is a complex hazard, and it has an impact on agricultural, ecological, and socio-economic systems. The vegetation condition index (VCI), which is derived from remote-sensing data, has been widely used for drought monitoring. However, VCI base......

Monitoring and Assessing the 2012 Drought in the Great Plains

We examined the relationship between satellite measurements of solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) and several meteorological drought indices, including the multi-time-scale standard precipitation index (SPI) and the Palmer drought severity ......

Comparison of the Continuity of Vegetation Indices Derived fr

Landsat 8, the most recently launched satellite of the series, promises to maintain the continuity of Landsat 7. However, in addition to subtle differences in sensor characteristics and vegetation index (VI) generation algorithms, VIs respond differe......

Monitoring of cold energy leaks in Darwin, Australia

Realizing the importance of Urban Energy Waste and Urban Heat Island phenomena due to rapid urbanization not only in China but also in other parts of the world, scientists of HRSL, IRSA also conducted experiments in Darwin, Australia by using Modular......

Research proved the superiority of Vegetation Index based on

Recent study published in International Journal of Remote Sensing by Chen et al., 2013 proved the superiority of VIUPD over 12 other famous indices for Hyperion and Chris data. It is worth mentioning here that VIUPD was a brain child of the Prof. Lif......

Mapping global lunar abundance of plagioclase, clinopyroxene

Mineral mapping of the lunar surface is critical to understanding the Moons geological diversity and history, yet the global lunar abundance of minerals has not been mapped using hyperspectral data. The Interference Imaging Spectrometer (IIM) of Chan......

Laboratory Calibration of a Field Imaging Spectrometer System

A new Field Imaging Spectrometer System (FISS) based on a cooling area CCD was developed. This paper describes the imaging principle, structural design, and main parameters of the FISS sensor. The FISS was spectrally calibrated with a double grating ......

A Radiometric Calibration Model for the Field Imaging Spectro

Using the field imaging spectrometer system (FISS) recently developed by us, a new operational radiometric calibration (RC) model that takes into account three main adjustable sensor system settings, including the integration time (t), the aperture ......

Comparison of the sensor dependence of VI based on Hyperion

In previous studies of the universal pattern decomposition method (UPDM), spectral shifts, which are very common in hyperspectral imaging spectrometers, were not taken into account when calculating standard spectral pattern vectors. This study evalua......
