Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of satellites, and particularly to a method and device for evaluating the radiation performance of satellite sensors based on stable targets. Background Art
[0002] Currently, the methods for monitoring the radiation performance of satellite sensors on orbiting satellites mainly include on-board calibration and in-orbit replacement calibration. Among them, on-board calibrators often experience a certain degree of attenuation due to harsh space environments and strong solar radiation, etc., and cannot be used for radiation calibration; in-orbit replacement calibration can be further subdivided into field calibration method, cross-calibration method, etc.
[0003] Field calibration is based on measured data, which requires synchronous measurement between the ground and the satellite. It is greatly affected by natural conditions such as weather, consumes a large amount of manpower and material resources, and the calibration frequency is very limited.
[0004] Cross-calibration uses a sensor with high radiation calibration accuracy as a reference sensor to establish a relationship with the sensor to be calibrated, so as to track and correct the change of the radiation performance of the sensor to be calibrated. However, cross-calibration strictly restricts the observation geometry and transit time of the two sensors, resulting in too little remote sensing image data for a single scene.
[0005] That is to say, for satellite sensors, the existing cross-calibration schemes have problems of poor practicability and lack of processing accuracy.
[0006] Taking the Medium Resolution Spectral Imager II (MERSI-II), a satellite sensor, as an example, MERSI-II is one of the main payloads of the FY3D satellite. Before the satellite carrying MERSI-II is launched, radiation calibration will be accurately carried out in the laboratory. However, as the satellite goes from launch to in-orbit operation, during this process, its own characteristics will change. At the same time, the harsh space environment will cause the aging of sensor components and the decline of sensitivity, etc., affecting its radiation performance. Therefore, it is very necessary to monitor and calibrate the radiation performance of MERSI-II carried on the orbiting satellite.
[0007] Moreover, it is actually found that for the satellite carrying MERSI-II, its on-board calibration system is imperfect, mainly relying on field calibration, with a slow update frequency and being greatly affected by weather, and it cannot monitor the change of sensor performance in time. In addition, the satellite carrying MERSI-II has been in operation for more than five years, and its calibration performance has not been fully studied, restricting its extensive quantitative applications. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the existing cross-calibration scheme for MERSI-II. Summary of the Invention

[0025] From the above content, the following beneficial effects of the present application can be obtained:
[0026] For the cross-radiometric calibration target of the top-of-atmosphere reflectance, the present application first obtains the first radiometric performance remote sensing data of the first satellite sensor whose radiometric performance is to be evaluated in a historical time period, and obtains the second radiometric performance remote sensing data of the second satellite sensor as a reference in the historical time period.

[0034] Before introducing the radiation performance evaluation method of the satellite sensor based on a stable target provided by the present application, the background content involved in the present application will be introduced first.
[0035] The radiation performance evaluation method, device, and computer-readable storage medium for satellite sensors based on stable targets provided by this application can be applied to processing devices. For the cross-radiometric calibration target of the top-of-atmosphere reflectance, this application provides a novel cross-radiometric calibration mechanism, which can combine a high-precision second satellite sensor to perform high-precision radiation performance evaluation for the first satellite sensor in terms of top-of-atmosphere reflectance, and then can correct the top-of-atmosphere reflectance collected by the first satellite sensor with high precision.
[0036] The execution subject of the radiation performance evaluation method for satellite sensors based on stable targets mentioned in this application can be a radiation performance evaluation device for satellite sensors based on stable targets, or different types of processing devices such as a server, a physical host, or a user equipment (UE) that integrates the radiation performance evaluation device for satellite sensors based on stable targets. Among them, the radiation performance evaluation device for satellite sensors based on stable targets can be implemented in a hardware or software manner. The UE can specifically be a terminal device such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, or a personal digital assistant (PDA). The processing device can be set up in the form of a device cluster.
[0037] It can be understood that the data processing involved in the radiation performance evaluation method for satellite sensors based on stable targets in this application is data processing carried out on the basis of the radiation performance remote sensing data processed during / after the data acquisition work of the satellite sensor carried on the on-orbit satellite. Therefore, for the processing device that executes the radiation performance evaluation method for satellite sensors based on stable targets provided by this application, or rather, the processing device that carries the corresponding application service of the radiation performance evaluation method for satellite sensors based on stable targets provided by this application, in actual situations, it only needs to have the required data processing capabilities.
[0038] If it is also necessary to involve the generation and processing of the analysis of radiation performance remote sensing data, it can be achieved by adjusting the composition structure of the processing device. For example, the processing device can specifically be a satellite control system with the ability to generate radiation performance remote sensing data. Another example is that the processing device can include two parts: a processing device body that executes the content of the solution of this application except for generating radiation performance remote sensing data, and a satellite control system that itself has the ability to generate radiation performance remote sensing data. In this way, the existing satellite control system can be linked to obtain the radiation performance remote sensing data required by the solution of this application.
[0039] Of course, in practical situations, the solution of the present application usually only needs to involve the existing photovoltaic power station images. There is no need to involve specific acquisition operations for the photovoltaic power station images, and the acquisition of the photovoltaic power station images can be handed over to the data source for processing.
[0040] Next, the method for evaluating the radiation performance of a satellite sensor based on a stable target provided by the present application will be introduced.
[0041] First, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 FIG. shows a schematic flowchart of a method for evaluating the radiation performance of a satellite sensor based on a stable target according to the present application. The method for evaluating the radiation performance of a satellite sensor based on a stable target provided by the present application may specifically include the following steps S101 to S106:
[0042] Step S101, obtain the first radiation performance remote sensing data of the first satellite sensor whose radiation performance is to be evaluated in a historical time period, and obtain the second radiation performance remote sensing data of the second satellite sensor as a reference in the historical time period;
[0043] It should be understood that the data processing performed in the present application is carried out within the time range of a preset historical time period, such as the historical time period from 2019 to 2021.
[0044] Based on the time range determined by the historical time period, obtain the radiation performance remote sensing data of the first satellite sensor whose radiation performance is to be evaluated and the second satellite sensor as a reference, and denote them as the first radiation performance remote sensing data and the second radiation performance remote sensing data respectively.
[0045] Among them, what the present application specifically does is to evaluate the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor in terms of the Top Of Atmosphere (TOA) reflectance. Thus, the radiation performance remote sensing data may directly include the data required for calculating the TOA reflectance, or may directly include the already calculated TOA reflectance, which is adjusted according to the specific data products of the data source.
[0046] As an example, the first satellite sensor involved in the present application may be the Medium Resolution Spectral Imager II (MERSI-II). In actual situations, specifically, it may be the MERSI-II on the Fengyun-3D (FY3D) series of satellites. Alternatively, it may also be other satellite sensors that need or can only be evaluated through cross-calibration methods, such as other polar-orbiting satellite sensors in the Fengyun series; the second satellite sensor may be a satellite sensor such as the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua satellite, which has high stability and accuracy.
[0047] In addition, it should be noted that starting from the remotely sensed radiation performance data obtained here, the series of data involved itself contains data content with variable factors such as different positions, different bands, and different times, rather than just one parameter.
[0048] Step S102: Extract the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance corresponding to the first remotely sensed radiation performance data and the stable target, and extract the second top-of-atmosphere reflectance corresponding to the second remotely sensed radiation performance data and the stable target, where the stable target is a selected geographical area.
[0049] It can be understood that corresponding to the different ways described above on how the remotely sensed radiation performance data obtained in the present application characterizes the top-of-atmosphere reflectance, an appropriate extraction method needs to be used here to obtain the corresponding top-of-atmosphere reflectance.
[0050] In addition, it should be noted that the top-of-atmosphere reflectance extracted here is specifically limited to the stable target focused on in the present application, that is, a specific geographical area. For this stable target, the present application believes that it can more accurately reflect the difference in the atmospheric reflectance collected by the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor. Therefore, the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor in terms of atmospheric reflectance can be more accurately evaluated through cross-radiometric calibration.
[0051] Specifically, as an exemplary embodiment, the stable target involved here may specifically include 4 targets, namely, a selected desert area, a glacier area, a deep convective cloud area, and an ocean current area.
[0052] That is to say, the present application believes that through 4 stable targets or 4 types of geographical areas, namely, the desert area, the glacier area, the deep convective cloud area, and the ocean current area, compared with other geographical areas and geographical area combinations, the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor in terms of atmospheric reflectance can be better evaluated.
[0053] Furthermore, as an exemplary embodiment, for the four targets focused on in this application, on the basis of the above specific types, this application also provides more specific configuration content to obtain better observation data, so as to further improve the solution effect to be achieved by this application focusing on the four stable targets.
[0054] Specifically, the content of the observation condition restrictions imposed on the four targets by this application are as follows:
[0055] 1) For the desert area (which can be denoted as DH), select a unified area of 20 km × 20 km centered on the corresponding first observation site, and limit the first solar zenith angle to be less than 65°, and the first observation zenith angle to be less than 40° to reduce data fluctuations at high solar angles. The standard deviation of the average value of the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance is less than 2% (used to check the spatial homogeneity of the stable target pixels extracted within the defined 20 km × 20 km area);
[0056] 2) For the glacier area (which can be denoted as DomeC), select a unified range of 20 km × 20 km centered on the corresponding second observation site, and limit the second solar zenith angle to be less than 70°. The standard deviation of the average value of the second top-of-atmosphere reflectance is less than 2% (used to eliminate the influence of clouds);
[0057] 3) For the deep convective cloud area (which can be denoted as DCC), select the threshold that the brightness temperature of the infrared channels at 10.78 μm - 11.28 μm (this range also corresponds to the 31st band of MODIS) and 10.8 μm (this range also corresponds to the 24th band of MERSI-II) is less than 205 K. As a prerequisite for the tropical region within the range of 20°S - 20°N and 85°E–125°E (this range is given in the standard latitude and longitude coordinate system) to identify potential deep convective cloud pixels, both the third solar zenith angle and the third observation zenith angle need to be less than 40°. In addition, in order to avoid the influence of thin clouds and the edge of clouds, improve the accuracy of deep convective cloud target recognition, and eliminate interference noise, the standard deviation of the 3×3 pixels in the visible - near-infrared channels is less than 3%, and the standard deviation of the brightness temperature in the infrared channels is less than 1 K;
[0058] 4) For the ocean current area (which can be denoted as TNP), select the circulation area within the range of 10°S–20°N and 150°E–160°E. Both the fourth observation zenith angle and the solar flare angle need to be less than 40°.
[0059] It can be seen that here a set of specific implementation supporting solutions is provided for how to configure the four stable targets, which has better practical significance.
[0060] Step S103: Perform spectral adjustment on the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance and the second top-of-atmosphere reflectance through the spectral matching factor to reduce the differences between the spectral channels of the two sensors.
[0061] After obtaining the two sets of data of the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor, at this time, spectral adjustment operations based on the Spectral Band Adjustment Factor (SBAF) can be performed to reduce the differences between the two sets of data and the spectral channels of the two sensors, so as to better evaluate the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor in the subsequent process.
[0062] Specifically, as an exemplary embodiment, the spectral adjustment of the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance and the second top-of-atmosphere reflectance through the spectral matching factor may include:
[0063] 1) Interpolate the spectral sampling intervals of the spectral response functions of the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor to 1 nm.
[0064] It can be seen that the interpolation process here not only improves the resolution (accuracy), but also aligns the spectral sampling intervals (spectral resolutions) of the spectral response functions of the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor for subsequent processing.
[0065] 2) Resample the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the third satellite sensor with a spectral sampling interval of 10 nm spectral response function (i.e., hyperspectral) to 1 nm.
[0066] It can be understood that here through resampling, the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the third satellite sensor is resampled from the original 10 nm spectral resolution to 1 nm, and aligned with the spectral sampling intervals of the spectral response functions of the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor at 1 nm for subsequent processing.
[0067] Among them, the third satellite sensor may specifically be EO-1 Hyperion.
[0068] The top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the third satellite sensor is obtained by processing the third radiation performance remote sensing data of the third satellite sensor in the historical time period, and the processing involved can refer to the processing involved in the first radiation performance remote sensing data and the second radiation performance remote sensing data before.
[0069] 3) Convolve the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the third satellite sensor at 1 nm with the spectral response functions of the corresponding channels of the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor respectively using the following formula, and fit the ratio of the two to obtain the spectral matching factor:
[0070]
[0071]
[0072] Among them, is the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of other satellite sensors simulated by using the third satellite sensor. In the same situation, the value range of λ is 1 or 2, corresponding to the first satellite sensor or the second satellite sensor. ρ represents the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the third satellite sensor, and SRF λ represents the spectral response function of the first satellite sensor or the second satellite sensor corresponding to the channel of the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the third satellite sensor. SBAF represents the spectral matching factor. represents the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the second satellite sensor simulated by using ρ. represents the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the first satellite sensor simulated by using ρ. represents the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance adjusted by using the spectral matching factor to match the second top-of-atmosphere reflectance.
[0073] It can be understood that here, in order to determine the spectral matching factor related to the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor, the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the third satellite sensor is introduced and combined with interpolation processing to provide a specific implementation scheme.
[0074] Step S104, perform bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction on the adjusted first top-of-atmosphere reflectance to reduce the influence of the change in the observed top-of-atmosphere reflectance caused by the difference in the viewing geometry on the time trend.
[0075] It can be understood that after performing spectral adjustment to reduce the difference between the spectral channels of the two sensors, the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) correction can be continued on the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance to further reduce the influence of the change in the observed top-of-atmosphere reflectance caused by the difference in the viewing geometry (angle parameters) on the time trend.
[0076] This application believes that due to the bidirectional reflectance distribution function effect and the surface type, there are corresponding bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction processes for the previous 4 objectives. Specifically, as an exemplary embodiment, the bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction model involved in performing bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction on the adjusted first top-of-atmosphere reflectance here can be:
[0077] 1) Corresponding to the desert area and the ocean current area, there is:
[0078] R(θ s ,θv , φ) = k 0 + k 1 f 1 (θ s , θ v , φ) + k 2 f 2 (θ s , θ v , φ),
[0079]
[0080] cosξ = cosθ s cosθ v + sinθ s sinθ v cosφ,
[0081] where R(θ s , θ v , φ) represents the top-of-atmosphere reflectance after model calibration, θ s represents the solar zenith angle, θ v represents the observation zenith angle, φ represents the relative azimuth angle, f 1 (θ s , θ v , φ) represents the volume scattering component, f 2 (θ s , θ v , φ) represents the surface scattering and geometric projection component, k 0 、k 1 and k 2 represent different model coefficients related to the surface type, cosξ represents an intermediate quantity;
[0082] 2) For the glacier area, there is:
[0083] R(θ s , θ v , φ) = c 1 + c 2 cos(π - φ) + c 3 cos[2(π - φ)],
[0084] c 1 = a 0 + a 1 (1 - cosθ v ), c 2 = a 2 (1 - cosθ v ), c 3 = a 3 (1 - cosθ v ),
[0085] a i = b 0i + b 1i cosθ s + b 2i cos 2 θ s , i = 0, 1, 2,
[0086] wherein, a i represents an intermediate quantity, and b 0i represents different model coefficients corresponding to the glacier region model;
[0087] 3) Corresponding to the deep convective cloud region, Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) has established a deep convective cloud angular distribution model with different cloud amounts and different cloud optical thicknesses (cloud parameters, aerosols) based on the high-calibration-accuracy observation data of satellites such as Aqua, Terra, and TRMM. This model has been widely applied to the field of sensor radiometric calibration research based on deep convective cloud targets. This model is a lookup table for bidirectional reflectance distribution function calibration parameters. The bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction factor in each deep convective cloud pixel can be obtained by looking up a set of solar zenith angles, observation zenith angles, and relative azimuth angles given in this lookup table. Correspondingly, by selecting the lookup table with a cloud amount greater than 99.9% and a cloud optical thickness greater than 50, there can be:
[0088]
[0089] wherein, F BRDF (θ s , θ v , φ) represents the bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction factor of this geometric angle at a certain set of solar zenith angles, observation zenith angles, and relative azimuth angles, and ρ TOA (θ s , θ v , φ) represents the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the said geometric angle.
[0090] It should be noted that a series of parameters of the three models here are provided by the data of the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance after the spectral adjustment performed previously.
[0091] In this way, a specific implementation solution is provided here for how this application realizes the bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction.
[0092] Step S105, calculate the ratio of the original first top-of-atmosphere reflectance to the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance after the bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction as the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance;
[0093] After the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance is adjusted spectrally and the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) is corrected, the BRDF-corrected first top-of-atmosphere reflectance can be obtained.
[0094] At this time, for subsequent radiation performance evaluation processing, the ratio of the original first top-of-atmosphere reflectance (i.e., the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance before spectral adjustment and BRDF correction, and this observed value is the output value of step S102) to the BRDF-corrected first top-of-atmosphere reflectance can be calculated. That is, the former is used as the numerator and the latter as the denominator, and the obtained ratio is denoted as the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance.
[0095] For the convenience of understanding the ratio calculation process here, it can also be expressed by the following formula:
[0096]
[0097] Among them, R TOA represents the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance, ρ TOA represents the original first top-of-atmosphere reflectance, and R(θ s , θ v , φ) represents the BRDF-corrected first top-of-atmosphere reflectance.
[0098] After obtaining the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance, subsequent radiation performance quantification processing can be carried out with this as the input to achieve the radiation performance evaluation goal.
[0099] Step S106: Quantify the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor based on the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance through a preset quantitative index.
[0100] It can be understood that after obtaining the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance, the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor can be effectively quantified according to the preset quantitative index (corresponding to a specific index calculation formula / strategy) of this application.
[0101] Specifically, as an exemplary embodiment, quantifying the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor based on the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance through a preset quantitative index may include:
[0102] Quantify the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor based on the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance through three quantitative indexes: the total attenuation rate, the annual average attenuation rate, and the P-value verification;
[0103] 1) For the total attenuation rate, which characterizes the overall degradation degree of the radiation performance, it can be expressed by the following formula:
[0104]
[0105] Among them, the top-of-atmosphere reflectance on the 15th day of each month is used to represent the top-of-atmosphere reflectance of that month, x start represents the 15th day of the first month in the historical time period, x end represents the 15th day of the last month in the historical time period, R TOA (x start ) represents the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance on the 15th day of the first month, R TOA (x end ) represents the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance on the 15th day of the last month;
[0106] 2) For the annual average attenuation rate, which characterizes the annual average degradation degree of radiation performance, it can be expressed by the following formula:
[0107]
[0108] Among them, D year represents the annual average attenuation rate, D all represents the total attenuation rate;
[0109] 3) In order to characterize the stability of radiation performance, linear regression can be performed on the long-term trends of the reflectances of each channel. The slope in the regression line can indicate the stability of the sensor radiation calibration. Among them, the common method for testing the slope of the regression line is the P-value test, which can be expressed by the following formula:
[0110] R TOA (x i ) = β 0 +β 1 x i ,
[0111] H 0 : β 1 = 0,
[0112] H 1 : β 1 ≠0,
[0113] if β 1 = 0, R TOA (x i ) = β 0 ,
[0114] Among them, x i represents the i-th observation time, R TOA (x i ) represents the i-th normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance, β 0 represents the intercept of the regression line, β 1 represents the slope of the regression line, H 0 represents the null hypothesis, H 1 represents the alternative hypothesis,
[0115] The null hypothesis states that the slope of the long-term trend of the radiation performance of each band (of the sensor) is 0, indicating that the radiation performance of the sensor in the current band is stable and has not degraded.
[0116] The alternative hypothesis indicates that the radiation performance in the current band is unstable and may have degraded.
[0117] Among them, the P-value is used to reject or explain the null hypothesis.
[0118] If the P-value < 0.05, the null hypothesis is rejected.
[0119] If the P-value ≥ 0.05, the null hypothesis cannot be rejected.
[0120] As an example, the calculated total attenuation rate and annual attenuation rate can be shown in the following table:
[0121] Table 1 - Example 1 of Quantitative Index
[0122]
[0123] Among them, band represents the band number, WV represents the specific band value, DH, DomeC, DCC, and TNP correspond to the 4 stable targets mentioned earlier, namely the desert area, glacier area, deep convective cloud area, and ocean current area. COM on the left represents the average normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the 4 stable targets, and COM on the right also represents the average normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the 4 stable targets.
[0124] As another example, the P-value verification results can be shown in the following table:
[0125] Table 2 - Example 2 of Quantitative Index
[0126]
[0127] Among them, band represents the band number, WV represents the specific band value, DH, DomeC, DCC, and TNP correspond to the 4 stable targets mentioned earlier, namely the desert area, glacier area, deep convective cloud area, and ocean current area, and Com represents the average normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the 4 stable targets.
[0128] It can be understood that after determining the radiation indicators at different positions, different bands, and different times, the substandard bands and their corresponding data can be screened out by combining the preset radiation indicator thresholds or standard ranges. In the case where the precise radiation performance evaluation has been completed, the corresponding correction (calibration) processing can be continued.
[0129] In this regard, as an exemplary embodiment, after quantifying the radiation performance of the first satellite sensor based on a preset quantitative index on the basis of the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance, the method for evaluating the radiation performance of the satellite sensor based on a stable target according to the present application may further include:
[0130] For the bands whose radiation performance quantization results exceed the standard range, correction is performed by the following formula:
[0131]
[0132] where R TOAN represents the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the band whose radiation performance quantization result exceeds the standard range, A and D represent different fitting parameters, and t 0 represents the starting time, and t represents the time at which the data to be corrected is located (i.e., the time of the satellite image to be processed currently).
[0133] It can be seen that here the present application designs a time decay model, by which the corresponding data of the non-compliant bands can be corrected with better performance.
[0134] As an example, as shown in the following table:
[0135] Table 3 - Correction Example 1
[0136]
[0137] where band represents the band number, WV represents the specific band value, DH, DomeC, DCC, and TNP correspond to the 4 stable targets involved above, namely the desert area, the glacier area, the deep convective cloud area, and the ocean current area, and R 2 AD and RMSE are two commonly used evaluation indexes in the field of mathematical statistics. It can be seen that the numerical level is low, which means that the prediction result is very good.
[0138] Furthermore, the total decay rate and the annual decay rate involved above can be combined to more vividly understand the positive changes brought about by the correction process done here, as shown in another example below:
[0139] Table 4 - Correction Example 2
[0140]
[0141] band represents the band number, WV represents the specific band value, DH, DomeC, DCC, and TNP correspond to the 4 stable targets involved above, namely the desert area, the glacier area, the deep convective cloud area, and the ocean current area, and COM represents the average value of the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance of the 4 stable targets.
[0142] Meanwhile, for the processing of each of the above stages, the corresponding images of the processing process / results can also be presented in a visual interface by tabulating / graphing, so as to more vividly reflect the solution effects of the solution of the present application. Among them, it can also involve settings where the processing device itself has a display screen, the processing device uses an external display device, or the processing device is linked with other devices having a display screen.
[0143] Generally speaking, for the above solution content, aiming at the cross-radiometric calibration target of the top-of-atmosphere reflectance, the present application first obtains the first radiometric performance remote sensing data of the first satellite sensor to be evaluated for radiometric performance in a historical time period, and obtains the second radiometric performance remote sensing data of the second satellite sensor as a reference in the historical time period. Then, the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance corresponding to the stable target in the first radiometric performance remote sensing data is extracted, and the second top-of-atmosphere reflectance corresponding to the stable target in the second radiometric performance remote sensing data is extracted. Among them, the stable target is a selected geographical area. At this time, the spectral adjustment of the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance and the second top-of-atmosphere reflectance is carried out through the spectral matching factor to reduce the difference between the spectral channels of the two sensors. Then, the bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction is carried out on the adjusted first top-of-atmosphere reflectance to reduce the influence of the change in the observed top-of-atmosphere reflectance caused by the difference in the viewing geometry on the time trend. Then, the ratio of the original first top-of-atmosphere reflectance to the first top-of-atmosphere reflectance after the bidirectional reflectance distribution function correction is calculated as the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance. At this time, based on the normalized top-of-atmosphere reflectance, the radiometric performance of the first satellite sensor is quantified through a preset quantitative index. In this way, the present application provides a novel cross-radiometric calibration mechanism, which can combine the high-precision second satellite sensor to perform high-precision radiometric performance evaluation for the first satellite sensor in terms of top-of-atmosphere reflectance, and further can correct the top-of-atmosphere reflectance collected by the first satellite sensor with high precision.
[0144] Among them, the solution effects of the present application can be specifically reflected in the following four aspects:
[0145] 1) Through the setting of four stable targets, the radiometric performance of the first satellite sensor in the visible light, near-infrared, and short-wave infrared bands is comprehensively evaluated, and the bands with attenuated radiometric performance can be corrected accordingly, greatly improving its radiometric calibration accuracy and providing a basis for its quantitative application in global change detection.
[0146] 2) It provides a reference for the collaborative application of the first satellite sensor and the second satellite sensor (such as MERSI-II and MODIS).
[0147] 3) Four different stable targets (desert area, glacier area, deep convective cloud area, and ocean current area) specially designed for evaluation have good consistency and can all be well applied to the radiometric calibration of the first satellite sensor (such as MERSI-II).
[0148] 4) In actual situations, in addition to being applicable to the radiometric performance evaluation of MERSI-II, it is also applicable to the radiometric performance evaluation of other satellite sensors such as the polar-orbiting satellite sensors of the Fengyun series.
