EP22C:
Satellite Land Surface Reflectance at Medium-/High-Resolution: Algorithms, Validation, and Applications I

Submit an Abstract to this Session



Session ID#: 35457

Session Description:
We solicit papers on the inversion and use of reflectance products from Landsat(s) and Sentinel 2 sensors with other sensors. For the last years, medium and high resolutions became a useful and a powerful toll for Earth studies. Topics of interest mainly include (not limited to):

  • Algorithm description and validation (including Cloud screening, Aerosol inversion, Radiative transfer);
  • Use of products in agricultural monitoring applications (such as crop area, crop type, crop growing, yield estimation and prediction, damage assessment);
  • Data integration / Harmonized products from both sensors with others;
  • Theoretical studies for sensors capabilities enhancements (e.g. addition of spectral bands) to future sensors for agriculture application;
  • Development and use of new vegetation indices (i.e. red edge) and other products for agriculture applications.

Depending on outcome, we think about a special issue.
