Remote Sensing of Nighttime Light: Progress, Prospects and Possibilities in Africa (2013–2021)

2021 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium IGARSS, 2021
Presently, only two satellites carry sensors that are involved in nocturnal lightning. These are the Defense Meteorological Satellite/Operational Linescan System (DMPS/OLS) and the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) of Suomi NPP satellite.

Remotely sensed nighttime lights reveal China's urbanization process restricted by haze pollution

Building and Environment, 2021
Abstract Under the background of China's active formulation and implementation of haze control policies, clarifying the relationship between the urbanization process (UP) and haze pollution (HP) is an important prerequisite for urban sustainable development.

Global Light Pollution Dynamics from 1992 to 2012 Based on Nighttime Light Remote Sensing

2018 Fifth International Workshop on Earth Observation and Remote Sensing Applications (EORSA), 2018
Light pollution has become an extensive environmental issue around world and nighttime light remote sensing technology is an unique and convenient mean to capture artificial light of surface earth. This paper aims to investigate the light pollution dynamics at global scale from 1992 to 2012 through nighttime light remote sensing.
