Effect of surface BRDF of various land cover types on geostationary observations of tropospheric NO2 [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2014
We investigated the effect of surface reflectance anisotropy, bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF), on satellite retrievals of tropospheric NO2.

Importance Sampling BRDF Derivatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
We propose a set of techniques to efficiently importance sample the derivatives of several BRDF models. In differentiable rendering, BRDFs are replaced by their differential BRDF counterparts which are real-valued and can have negative values. This leads

BRDF LABORATORY MEASUREMENTS USING A CAMERA-AIDED SPECTRORADIOMETER [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022
Numerous natural surfaces observed using Remote Sensing do not reflect light as Lambertian surfaces. Instead, their reflection is highly dependent on two main directions: the direction of the light source and the observation viewing angle, which ...

Evaluating the Performance of Satellite-Derived Vegetation Indices for Estimating Gross Primary Productivity Using FLUXNET Observations across the Globe

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Satellite-derived vegetation indices (VIs) have been widely used to approximate or estimate gross primary productivity (GPP). However, it remains unclear how the VI-GPP relationship varies with indices, biomes, timescales, and the bidirectional ...

A Kernel-Driven BRDF Approach to Correct Airborne Hyperspectral Imagery over Forested Areas with Rugged Topography

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Airborne hyper-spectral imaging has been proven to be an efficient means to provide new insights for the retrieval of biophysical variables. However, quantitative estimates of unbiased information derived from airborne hyperspectral measurements ...

Characterizing Land Surface Anisotropic Reflectance over Rugged Terrain: A Review of Concepts and Recent Developments

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Rugged terrain, including mountains, hills, and some high lands are typical land surfaces around the world. As a physical parameter for characterizing the anisotropic reflectance of the land surface, the importance of the bidirectional reflectance ...

An Empirical Assessment of Angular Dependency for RedEdge-M in Sloped Terrain Viticulture

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
For grape canopy pixels captured by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) tilt-mounted RedEdge-M multispectral sensor in a sloped vineyard, an in situ Walthall model can be established with purely image-based methods.
