光谱混合分析能够提取亚像元信息,被广泛地应用于遥感影像目标探测之中。本文针对MODIS积雪遥感影像,基于光谱混合分析框架,利用渐进辐射传输模型建立不同粒径大小的雪反射率光谱库,提出了一种考虑端元变化及二次辐射的雪盖面积反演算法。此算法首先利用渐进辐射传输模型建立不同粒径大小积雪的反射率光谱库,然后使用序贯最大角凸锥方法获取植被、土壤与岩石、阴影的光谱库。在建立各种地物反射率光谱库之后,利用均方根误差最小的方法获取最优端元组合。在此基础上,考虑端元独立辐射以及积雪与其它地物的二次辐射过程,利用稀疏光谱混合模型获取积雪面积与雪粒径大小。实验结果表明:此方法能够同时反演雪粒径与积雪面积,反演的雪粒径相比单波段的渐进辐射传输模型小,反演的积雪面积相比MODl0A1产品精度略微提高。
Snow-cover information is important for a wide variety of scientific studies, water supply and management applications. The NASA Earth Observing System (EOS) Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) provides improved capabilities of observing snow cover from space and has been successfully us- ing a normalized difference snow index (NDSI), along with threshold tests, to provide global automated binary maps of snow cover. NDSI and other classification algorithms were used to inverse subpixel information of Snow Cover Fraction (SCF), but these algorithms neglected the relation between SCF and Snow Grain Size (SGZ). The SGZ might affect snow reflectance spectral curves, while most subpixel classification algorithm took advantage of the spectral feature space. The collaborative inversion of SCF and SGZ helped improve the under- standing of the physical properties of snow. Meanwhile, it was possible to improve the retrieval accuracy of SCF. The framework of spectral mixture analysis (SMA) was widely used in the target detection of remote sensing im- ages because of its ability to extract subpixel information and SMA could use mathematical methods to model SCF with snow reflectance spectral curves with different snow grain sizes. In this paper, in view of the snow cov- er with MODIS remote sensing image, based on the framework of spectral mixture analysis, the snow reflectance spectral library with different grain sizes was built by asymptotic radiative transfer (ART) model, and a sparse unmixing algorithm of snow cover fraction retrieval was proposed considering the endmember variability of snow with other materials and bilinear radiative process of endmembers. The ART model had a higher efficiency compared with MIE scatter model. Meanwhile, ART model considered snow grain shape parameters. The majori- ty algorithm of SMA assumed the endmembers independent, which might neglect the interaction of endmembets, while bilinear radiative process of endmembers could consider second-or
