Fine Classification of UAV Urban Nighttime Light Images Based on Object-Oriented Approach
Sensors, 2023 Fine classification of urban nighttime lighting is a key prerequisite step for small-scale nighttime urban research. In order to fill the gap of high-resolution urban nighttime light image classification and recognition research, this paper is based on a

A Saturated Light Correction Method for DMSP-OLS Nighttime Stable Light Data by Remote and Social Sensing Data [PDF]
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021 The defense meteorological satellite program- operational line-scan system nighttime stable light (NTL) data have been widely used to evaluate the intensity of human activities. However, the sensor's defects lead to the saturation phenomenon, which greatly limits the reliability of the research results based on NTL data.

Sensitivity studies of nighttime top-of-atmosphere radiances from artificial light sources using a 3-D radiative transfer model for nighttime aerosol retrievals [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2023 By accounting for surface-based light source emissions and top-of-atmosphere (TOA) downward lunar fluxes, we adapted the spherical harmonics discrete ordinate method (SHDOM) 3-dimensional (3-D) radiative transfer model (RTM) to simulate nighttime 3-D TOA

Enhanced Statistical Estimation of Air Temperature Incorporating Nighttime Light Data [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2016 Near surface air temperature (Ta) is one of the most critical variables in climatology, hydrology, epidemiology, and environmental health. In situ measurements are not efficient for characterizing spatially heterogeneous Ta, while remote sensing is a powerful tool to break this limitation. This study proposes a mapping framework for daily mean Ta using

Remote Sensing, 2022 The urban spatial structure is a key feature of the distribution of social and economic resources. The spatial structure of an urban agglomeration is an abstract relationship expression of urbanization. Urban agglomerations develop for multiple reasons, including urban planning and natural evolution.
