Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of remote sensing image processing, and in particular relates to an aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method, device, equipment and medium. Background Art

[0002] In satellite earth imaging remote sensing in the visible to shortwave infrared bands, atmospheric scattering and multiple coupled scattering between the atmosphere and the surface blur the remote sensing images, reducing their clarity and causing the apparent reflectivity of the detected top of the atmosphere to deviate from the true surface reflectivity. Therefore, after collecting the original images of the surface using a satellite remote sensing platform, it is usually necessary to perform atmospheric correction on the original images to obtain more accurate image content and obtain the layer height distribution of aerosols, that is, the vertical distribution, which is of great significance for atmospheric correction research.

[0003] In order to measure the layer height distribution of aerosols, a lot of research has been done on aerosol layer height measurement since the Cloud-Aerosol Polarimetric Lidar (CALIOP) on the CALIPSO platform began to provide data in 2006. Active remote sensing technology using high spectral resolution Lidar (LIDAR) measurements can accurately measure the vertical distribution of aerosols, but there are limitations in width and revisit period. So far, passive satellites still cannot provide inverted aerosol vertical distribution data with the same accuracy as LIDAR, but in terms of spatial range and revisit period, their data are an indispensable supplement to LIDAR aerosol layer height inversion.

[0004] The O2A band (0.764 μm) and O2B band (0.688 μm) measurements provided by passive satellites have the advantage of being unaffected by thermal radiation, and have been shown to be of great value in retrieving aerosol layer height when the aerosol optical thickness is large. Algorithms that use oxygen absorption spectra to invert the vertical distribution of aerosols can be divided into two categories. The first category directly applies the principle that the apparent reflectivity of the oxygen absorption band increases with the rise of the aerosol scattering layer. This type of algorithm derives the aerosol height based on the reflectivity ratio of the inner and outer channels of the absorption band. However, this method can only produce a single aerosol height information. The second type of method, satellites that act on spectral fitting techniques, usually have coarse spatial resolution (e.g., GOME, GOME-2, and SCIAMCHY) or limited spatial coverage (e.g., GOSAT, OCO-2, and TanSat). In contrast, the reflectivity ratio method provides less detailed aerosol profiles than the spectral fitting algorithm, but the corresponding instruments usually have better spatial resolution and wider spatial coverage (e.g., POLDER, MERIS, and EPIC). Accurate height retrieval relies on appropriate assumptions about aerosol optical properties and surface reflectivity. Currently, there is an urgent need for passive satellite measurement techniques in the context of atmospheric correction to accurately retrieve the vertical distribution of the aerosol layer. Summary of the invention

[0042] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention by specific examples, and those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be noted that the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0043] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present invention, and thus the drawings only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation.

In other embodiments, well-known structures and devices are shown in the form of block diagrams rather than in detail to avoid making the embodiments of the present invention difficult to understand.

[0045] In order to solve the technical problem that the existing technology is highly dependent on the prior assumption of surface reflectivity and it is difficult to obtain accurate aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness results under the goal of atmospheric correction, the present invention provides an aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method, which uses the optimal estimation technology and radiation transfer model based on passive multi-spectral satellite data to achieve the inversion of aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness. Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method includes the following steps:

[0046] S100: Obtain the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation longitude and latitude information, polarization reflectivity measurement value of the first observation band combination, and reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination in the observation area;

[0047] S200: obtaining a priori aerosol layer height, a priori aerosol optical thickness and a priori surface reflectivity according to the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation latitude and longitude information and the polarization reflectivity measurement value of the first observation band combination;

[0048] S300: Obtaining an aerosol inversion lookup table according to the prior aerosol layer height, the prior aerosol optical thickness and the prior surface reflectivity;

[0049] S400: Obtaining an inverted aerosol layer height and an inverted aerosol optical thickness according to the reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination and the aerosol inversion lookup table.

[0050] The steps of the above-mentioned aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method are discussed in detail below.

[0051] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method is applied to a passive multi-spectral satellite remote sensing platform. The passive multi-spectral satellite remote sensing platform can be equipped with an atmospheric correction instrument, a positioning and attitude system, a controller and a data processor simultaneously. Among them, the working bands of the atmospheric correction instrument include: 443nm, 490nm, 565nm, 670nm, 870nm, 910nm, 680nm, 688nm, 764nm, 730nm, 1380nm, 1500nm, 1560nm, 1610nm, and the atmospheric correction instrument adopts a three-channel solution, that is, three different polarization analysis directions are set in each spectral band, and the polarization analysis directions are usually set to 0°, 60° and 120° to cover as much polarization information as possible, which can obtain a wide range of atmospheric multi-spectral polarization data. The polarization observation band can include 680nm, 688nm, 764nm, and 780nm, and the remaining bands use a non-polarization observation mode to observe reflectivity. The positioning and orientation system (POS) can obtain the geographical information on the flight path of the aerial remote sensing platform, flight altitude and other flight trajectory data, and obtain the attitude data of the atmospheric correction instrument. The controller can control the atmospheric correction instrument, the positioning and orientation system, etc. The data processor can be used to execute the aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method.

[0052] First, step S100 is executed to obtain the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation longitude and latitude information, polarization reflectivity measurement values ​​of the first observation band combination, and reflectivity measurement values ​​of the second observation band combination in the observation area.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, in step S100, obtaining the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation longitude and latitude information, polarization reflectivity measurement values ​​of the first observation band combination, and reflectivity measurement values ​​of the second observation band combination of the observation area further includes the following steps:

[0054] S110: Determine the atmospheric profile type and aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics based on the observation area and observation time of the passive multispectral satellite remote sensing platform;

[0055] S120: Acquire observation geometry information and observation longitude and latitude information collected by a positioning and attitude determination system carried by the passive multispectral satellite remote sensing platform;

[0056] S130: Obtaining polarization reflectivity measurement values ​​of the first observation band combination and reflectivity measurement values ​​of the second observation band combination collected by the atmospheric correction instrument carried by the passive multispectral satellite remote sensing platform.

[0057] Specifically, the positioning and attitude determination system carried by the passive multi-spectral satellite remote sensing platform collects observation geometry information and observation longitude and latitude, wherein the observation geometry information includes the relative position and angle relationship between the satellite, the observation area and the sun. In this embodiment, the observation geometry information includes satellite attitude, observation angle and altitude information, wherein the satellite attitude includes the roll angle, pitch angle and heading angle of the satellite, wherein the observation angle includes the incident angle, observation angle and azimuth angle, wherein the altitude information includes the height of the satellite relative to the earth's surface, and wherein the observation longitude and latitude include the geographical location of the observation area. The multi-spectral high-resolution camera and the atmospheric correction instrument carried by the passive multi-spectral satellite remote sensing platform can synchronously collect surface image data and polarization reflectance data of the first observation band combination and reflectance data of the second observation band combination under the control of the controller. After the data processor obtains the raw data collected by the two, it can perform pre-processing such as radiation calibration, polarization calibration and geometric calibration on the data to obtain the surface image that can be used for subsequent processing, the polarization reflectance measurement value corresponding to the first observation band combination and the reflectance measurement value corresponding to the second observation band combination.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the first observation band combination includes observation bands that are more affected by aerosols and atmospheric molecules and observation bands that are less affected by aerosols and atmospheric molecules, and the second observation band includes 688nm and 680nm, 764nm and 780nm.

[0059] Specifically, the first observation band combination includes: 443nm, 490nm, 565nm, 670nm, 870nm, 910nm, 680nm, 688nm, 764nm, 730nm, 1380nm, 1500nm, 1560nm, 1610nm. It should be noted that since the polarization characteristics of the surface are not sensitive to the band, and generally the longer the wavelength, the less it is affected by atmospheric molecules and aerosol scattering, in this embodiment, the first observation band combination includes observation bands that are greatly affected by aerosols and atmospheric molecules and observation bands that are less affected by aerosols and atmospheric molecules. It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the polarization reflectivity measurement value of the polarization observation band of the atmospheric correction instrument can be used as the input of the GRASP program, and the prior aerosol layer height, prior aerosol optical thickness and prior surface reflectivity are calculated by the GRASP program during the subsequent aerosol inversion.

[0060] The second observation band combination includes 688nm and 680nm, 764nm and 780nm, wherein the 688nm band is an oxygen B absorption band, the 680nm band is an oxygen B non-absorption band, the 764nm band is an oxygen A absorption band, and the 780nm band is an oxygen A non-absorption band. Since the surface characteristics and aerosol characteristics vary little in the four bands in the second observation band combination, the influence of the surface characteristics and aerosol characteristics on the reflectivity can be eliminated by the ratio of the reflectivity measurement values ​​of the absorption band and the non-absorption band.

[0061] Next, step S200 is executed to obtain a priori aerosol layer height, a priori aerosol optical thickness and a priori surface reflectivity according to the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation longitude and latitude information and the polarization reflectivity measurement value of the first observation band combination.

[0062] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, step S200 includes: using the GRASP program to obtain the prior aerosol layer height, the prior aerosol optical thickness and the prior surface reflectivity according to the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation longitude and latitude information and the polarization reflectivity measurement value of the first observation band combination.

[0063] Specifically, the atmospheric correction instrument obtains corresponding polarization reflectivity measurement values ​​in the polarization observation mode for each observation band of the first observation band combination, and determines the initial value of aerosol layer height, initial value of aerosol optical thickness and initial value of surface reflectivity in the observation area through the GRASP program according to the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation longitude and latitude information and the polarization reflectivity measurement values ​​of the first observation band combination, and takes the initial value of aerosol layer height corresponding to each band in the first observation band combination as the prior aerosol layer height, the initial value of aerosol optical thickness corresponding to each band in the first observation band combination as the prior aerosol optical thickness, and the initial value of surface reflectivity as the prior surface reflectivity of the observation area.

[0064] Next, step S300 is performed, that is, an aerosol inversion lookup table is obtained according to the prior aerosol layer height, the prior aerosol optical thickness and the prior surface reflectivity.

[0065] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, in step S300, according to the a priori aerosol layer height, the a priori aerosol optical thickness and the a priori surface reflectivity, an aerosol inversion lookup table is obtained, further comprising the following steps:

[0066] S310: according to the a priori aerosol layer height, the a priori aerosol optical thickness and the a priori surface reflectivity, using an atmospheric radiation transmission model, obtaining theoretical values ​​of apparent reflectivity of the observation area corresponding to all observation bands in the first observation band combination;

[0067] S320: Establishing an aerosol inversion lookup table according to the prior aerosol layer height, the prior aerosol optical thickness, the prior surface reflectivity and the theoretical value of the apparent reflectivity.

[0068] In an exemplary embodiment of the application, step S320 includes: constructing an M×N two-dimensional table, in which the horizontal rows represent the aerosol layer height and the vertical rows represent the aerosol optical thickness, and filling the corresponding theoretical values ​​of the apparent reflectivity into the two-dimensional table to obtain the aerosol inversion lookup table, wherein each grid point represents the mapping relationship between the aerosol layer height, the aerosol optical thickness and the apparent reflectivity.

[0069] Specifically, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2As shown, the atmospheric radiation transfer model can be a unified linearized vector radiation transfer model (UNL-VRTM). By inputting multiple pairs of a priori aerosol layer height, a priori aerosol optical thickness, and observation geometry information and observation latitude and longitude information of a passive multi-spectral satellite remote sensing platform into the model, multiple theoretical values ​​of apparent reflectance corresponding to oxygen absorption bands and non-oxygen absorption bands can be calculated. The expression of the UNL-VRTM radiation transfer model is:

[0070]

[0071] where τ is the aerosol extinction coefficient measured at the top of the atmosphere, Δφ=φ-φ0 is the relative azimuth, μ and μ0 are the cosines of φ and φ0, respectively, ω is the single scattering albedo, and Z is the scattering phase function matrix.

[0072] According to the parameter range and step size of the variable parameters, different values ​​of different variable parameters are input into the UNL-VRTM radiation transfer model to obtain the corresponding theoretical values ​​of apparent reflectivity, and a lookup table of aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness is constructed based on this. That is, an M×N two-dimensional table is constructed, in which the horizontal rows represent the aerosol layer height and the vertical rows represent the aerosol optical thickness. The corresponding theoretical values ​​of apparent reflectivity are filled into the corresponding grids to obtain an aerosol inversion lookup table, in which each grid point represents the mapping relationship between aerosol layer height, aerosol optical thickness and apparent reflectivity.

[0073] It should be noted that in order to facilitate the inversion of aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness under different atmospheric profiles and observation geometry information, multiple different atmospheric profiles and a variety of different observation geometry information can be set in advance. According to the combination of different aerosol layer heights and aerosol optical thicknesses, observation altitudes and observation geometry information, the atmospheric radiation transfer model is used to obtain the theoretical values ​​of the apparent reflectivity corresponding to the oxygen absorption band and the non-oxygen absorption band for each combination, and an aerosol inversion lookup table is constructed.

[0074] Finally, step 400 is performed, that is, the inverted aerosol layer height and the inverted aerosol optical thickness are obtained according to the reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination and the aerosol inversion lookup table.

[0075] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, in step S400, according to the reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination and the aerosol inversion lookup table, the inverted aerosol layer height and the inverted aerosol optical thickness are obtained, further comprising the following steps:

[0076] S410: Obtaining the apparent reflectivity of the second observation band combination according to the reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination;

[0077] S420: Compare and verify the apparent reflectivity of the second observation band combination with the aerosol inversion lookup table, and obtain the inverted aerosol layer height and inverted aerosol optical thickness by interpolating and fitting the aerosol inversion lookup table.

[0078] Specifically, according to the apparent reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination actually obtained by the passive multispectral satellite remote sensing platform, the closest theoretical value of the apparent reflectivity and its corresponding aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness can be indexed from the aerosol inversion lookup table, and the inverted aerosol optical layer height and aerosol optical thickness corresponding to the apparent reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination can be determined through interpolation calculation and the like.

[0079] In summary, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides an aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method, which can remove the influence of aerosol and atmospheric molecules in the aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness inversion by obtaining the polarization reflectivity measurement value of the first observation band combination. On the other hand, by combining the aerosol vertical distribution profile inverted by GRASP and the observation geometry information, multiple pairs of prior aerosol layer heights and prior aerosol optical thicknesses are set, and the atmospheric radiation transmission model is used to determine the apparent reflectivity corresponding to each pair of aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness, and an aerosol inversion lookup table is established based on this. The apparent reflectance measurement value of the second observation band combination actually obtained by the passive multispectral satellite remote sensing platform is obtained, the apparent reflectance measurement value of the second observation band is compared and verified with the aerosol inversion lookup table, and the aerosol inversion lookup table is interpolated and fitted to obtain the inverted aerosol layer height and inverted aerosol optical thickness corresponding to the apparent reflectance measurement value of the second observation band combination, thereby achieving fast and accurate inversion of the aerosol layer height and aerosol optical thickness.

[0080] Based on the same inventive concept, please refer to Figure 4 As shown, another embodiment of the present invention further provides an aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion device 11, the device comprising:

[0081] The data acquisition module 111 is used to obtain the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation longitude and latitude information, polarization reflectivity measurement values ​​of the first observation band combination, and reflectivity measurement values ​​of the second observation band combination in the observation area;

[0082] The data processing module 112 is used to obtain a priori aerosol layer height, a priori aerosol optical thickness and a priori surface reflectivity according to the atmospheric profile type, aerosol microphysics and single scattering characteristics, observation geometry information, observation latitude and longitude information and the polarization reflectivity measurement value of the first observation band combination, and obtain an aerosol inversion lookup table according to the priori aerosol layer height, the priori aerosol optical thickness and the prior surface reflectivity;

[0083] The aerosol inversion module 113 is used to obtain the inverted aerosol layer height and the inverted aerosol optical thickness according to the reflectivity measurement value of the second observation band combination and the aerosol inversion lookup table.

[0084] It should be noted that the aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion device includes the aerosol layer height and optical thickness inversion method described in any of the above embodiments.
