A Saturated Light Correction Method for DMSP-OLS Nighttime Stable Light Data by Remote and Social Sensing Data [PDF]
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.
