Evaluation of Himawari-8 for Live Fuel Moisture Content Retrieval

open access: yesIGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020
Near-real-time monitoring live fuel moisture content (LFMC) from remote sensing is paramount to wildfire early management at a large scale since LFMC is a critical variable in affecting fire ignition and fire spread rate. The geostationary satellite Himawari-8 observes the land surface every 10 minutes, making near-real-time LFMC retrieval achievable ...

Spatiotemporal distributions of cloud properties over China based on Himawari-8 advanced Himawari imager data

Atmospheric Research, 2020
Abstract Using the Himawari-8 cloud product, this study investigated the seasonal, monthly, diurnal variations as well as spatial and vertical distributions of cloud properties over four typical regions, which are northwest (NW), north (N), southeast (SE) China and Tibetan Plateau (TP). The results show that the cloud occurs most frequently in spring

The Reprocessing for Himawari-8 Based on Deep Learning

2021 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium IGARSS, 2021
Wildfires may cause great casualties and heavy wildfires are becoming more and more frequently all over the world in recent years. However, due to the environmental limitation, high manual-dependent operation is often impractical with other limits. In this paper, a transfer learning neural network based on long short term memory (LSTM) was used to ...

Evaluation of the Himawari-8 Aerosol Products

IGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019
To accurately analyze the spatiotemporal variation of the aerosol in China, the Himawari-8 Level 3 aerosol optical depth (AOD) products were validated by the AERONET (Aerosol Robotic Network) sunphotometer measurements at 9 observation sites in China.

Land Surface Temperature Retrieval from the Infrared Measurements of Advanced Himawari Imager on Himawari-8

IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018
This work addresses Land Surface Temperature (LST) retrieval from the infrared measurements of Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) on Himawari-8 satellite using the Generalized Split-Window (GSW) algorithm. First, a radiative transfer modeling experiment is conducted using the moderate spectral resolution atmospheric transmittance algorithm and computer ...

Preliminary validation of Himawari-8/AHI navigation and calibration

SPIE Proceedings, 2015
The next-generation geostationary meteorological satellite of the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), Himawari-8, entered operation on 7 July 2015. Himawari-8 features the new 16-band Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI), whose spatial resolution and observation frequency are improved over those of its predecessor MTSAT-series satellites.

Groundstatiions and Processing Software for Himawari-8

33rd AIAA International Communications Satellite Systems Conference and Exhibition, 2015
Himawari-8 is a new meteorological satellite covering the Asian region which was successfully launched in October 2014. It generates 450GB per day of remote sensing data, delivering an entire earth disk in 16 spectral channels, covering the VIS, NIR and IR bands. Most remarkably, a complete earth disk is transmitted every 10 minutes.

MTF analysis using lunar observations for Himawari-8/AHI

Earth Observing Systems XXII, 2017
The modulation transfer function, or MTF, is a common measure of image fidelity, which has been historically characterized on-orbit using high contrast images of the lunar limb obtained by remote sensing instruments onboard both low-orbit and geostationary satellites.
