Title: | Air pollution monitoring through the application of atmospheric correction for ASTER imagery | Authors: | Themistocleous, Kyriacos Hadjimitsis, Diofantos G. |
Major Field of Science: | Engineering and Technology | Field Category: | Civil Engineering | Keywords: | Air quality;Atmospheric aerosols;Atmospherics;Environmental engineering;Geographic information systems;Geology;Infrared spectroscopy;Photometry;Radiometers;Remote sensing;Satellites;Sun | Issue Date: | 7-Oct-2009 | Source: | Remote Sensing for Environmental Monitoring, GIS Applications, and Geology IX, 2009, Berlin, Germany, 31 August - 3 September, 2009 | Conference: | Remote Sensing for Environmental Monitoring, GIS Applications, and Geology | Abstract: | This paper presents the results obtained through the application of atmospheric correction on ASTER images for deriving the aerosol optical thickness (AOT). The literature shows that there is a gap in correlating the determined or measured AOT through the visible and near-infrared spectrum with the air-pollutants such as PM10, PM2.5, CO2, etc. This research investigates such aspects by acquiring sun-photometer measurements, image data, and air-pollutants measurements during the satellite overpass of the urban areas in Paphos and Limassol District in Cyprus. AOT values delivered from MODIS satellite images are regressed against the sun-photometer ground-based measurements. The determined AOT values from both sources are compared with the AOT values retrieved from ASTER and/or LANDSAT TM /ETM+ images. Preliminary results show that the AOT retrieved after applying an atmospheric correction from the images was very near to those found from the sun-photometers acquired simultaneous during the satellite overpass | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/4517 | DOI: | 10.1117/12.830581 | Rights: | © SPIE | Type: | Conference Papers | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology | Publication Type: | Peer Reviewed |
