Continuous mapping of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air quality in East Asia at daily 6 × 6 km2 resolution by application of a random forest algorithm to 2011–2019 GOCI geostationary satellite data [PDF]
We use 2011–2019 aerosol optical depth (AOD) observations from the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) instrument over East Asia to infer 24 h daily surface fine particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations at a continuous 6 × 6 km2 resolution over ...

GOCI data processing and ocean applications [PDF]
GOCI, the world’s first geostationary ocean color sensor, has been developed with the purpose of monitoring the marine environment and providing a quick and timely warning of marine dangers. It takes eight times a day the images of the Northeast Asian region while the polar orbiters have only a 2-3 day revisit occasion.

A MULTI-TEMPORAL APPROACH FOR DETECTING SNOW COVER AREA USING GEOSTATIONARY IMAGERY DATA [PDF]
In this study, we attempt to detect snow cover area using multi-temporal geostationary satellite imagery based on the difference of spectral and temporal characteristics between snow and clouds. The snow detection method is based on sequential processing

AUTOMATED MOSAICKING OF GEOSTATIONARY OCEAN COLOR IMAGER BY COMBINATION OF SPATIAL AND FREQUENCY MATCHING [PDF]
In general, image mosaicking is a useful and important processing for handling images with narrow field of view. It is being used widely for images from commercial cameras as well as from aerial and satellite cameras. For mosaicking images with geometric

Improved Vegetation Profiles with GOCI Imagery Using Optimized BRDF Composite [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to optimize a composite method for the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI), which is the first geostationary ocean color sensor in the world. Before interpreting the sensitivity of each composite with ground measurements, we evaluated the accuracy of bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) performance by

An Improved Cloud Masking Method for GOCI Data over Turbid Coastal Waters [PDF]
Clouds severely hinder the radiative transmission of visible light; thus, correctly masking cloudy and non-cloudy pixels is a preliminary step in processing ocean color remote sensing data. However, cloud masking over turbid waters is prone to misjudgment, leading to loss of non-cloudy pixel data. This research proposes an improved cloud masking method
