Spectral Cross-Calibration of VIIRS Enhanced Vegetation Index with MODIS: A Case Study Using Year-Long Global Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2016
In this study, the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) was spectrally cross-calibrated with the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) EVI using a year-long, global VIIRS-MODIS dataset at the ...

Night-Time Detection of Subpixel Emitters with VIIRS Mid-Wave Infrared Bands M12–M13

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
In this paper, we present a new approach to subpixel infrared (IR) emitter detection in VIIRS mid-wave (MWIR) infrared bands M12–M13 at night, based on the presence of a tightly clustered background diagonal present in full granule scattergrams of M12 ...

Conflict monitoring with VIIRS Nightfire: the war in Ukraine. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep
Abstract Amid rising geopolitical instability, timely, systematic, and independent monitoring of conflict zones is essential. We show how nighttime thermal anomalies from spaceborne sensors can be combined with boundary data, territorial control vector data, and high-resolution damage assessments to generate ...

A Framework for Estimating Clear-Sky Atmospheric Total Precipitable Water (TPW) from VIIRS/S-NPP

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Atmospheric water vapor content or total precipitable water (TPW) is a highly variable atmospheric constituent, yet it remains one of the meteorological parameters that is most difficult to characterize accurately.

SNPP VIIRS Emissive Bands Calibration Assessed via a CrIS-VIIRS Data Comparison [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present an assessment of the calibration of the Suomi NPP VIIRS thermal emissive bands (TEB) M13 (4.05 micron), M15 (10.76 micron), and M16 (12.013 micron) based on comparison between CrIS and VIIRS SDR Earth radiance data, obtained at the same time ...

Intercomparison of MODIS AQUA and VIIRS I-Band Fires and Emissions in an Agricultural Landscape—Implications for Air Pollution Research

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Quantifying emissions from crop residue burning is crucial as it is a significant source of air pollution. In this study, we first compared the fire products from two different sensors, the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) 375 m active ...

Software supplement to "Variation to Individual Location Radiance in VIIRS DNB Monthly Composite Images"

open access: yes, 2012
This set of Python-code is used to analyse the variation of VIIRS DNB nighttime imagery. The code is inline documented and the readme provides information on what is needed to run the code, and what order to run it in. These routines were used to produce
